In this episode, you'll hear Vicky Hurd talk about her journey into running and the mental skills she used to shatter her first marathon experience at Every Woman's Marathon!
Vicky highlights the importance of practicing a positive mindset throughout training, the self-talk that worked for her, and how she leaned on her family, run club, and the Fuel Goods team along the way.
Vicky was so inspired by all of the women training for their fall marathons and running Every Woman’s Marathon last year that she decided to start her own running journey after having her second baby. A marathon seemed like a pipe dream that she'd complete in maybe 2 or more years, but once she started running, she couldn’t stop! She's now run a full marathon, 3 half marathons, and numerous 5k and 10k races in the last year.
Massive thank you to Vicky for sharing her experience and what worked for her so we can all shatter our next race!
