In this episode, I focus on a huge win in dealing with my anxiety around training and racing. It’s opened a whole new chapter in my running journey. Healing anxiety has been a dedicated focus for the past few years, and it’s resulted in some breakthrough moments over the past few months. This includes the terrific experiences I just had at my indoor track season opening races which just took place last weekend, on December 13. There, I ran the mile and the 800, my first time doubling with those two events. Hear why I had a truly remarkable time for reasons that went beyond paces and times. 

Plus, a positive update on working to lower my cholesterol, and details about working with my new coach, Molly Huddle. 

This episode is full of inspiration and joy.
