What IS discipline and how do we cultivate it? Do you struggle to stay "motivated" and be consistent? Do you believe that discipline is about sacrifice, denial, and rigidly inflexible scheduling? Coach Elisabeth explores the concepts of discipline, motivation, and willpower in this solo episode!
Discipline & willpower are often associated with self-denial, with struggle, with sacrifice, but that's the wrong way to approach behavior change. Self-discipline is the ability to manage your thoughts, emotions, or behavior in the face of temptation in order to achieve a specific goal, and what your GOAL is and WHY you’re doing it feed into your ability to be consistent in working towards that goal. Learn about extrinsic vs intrinsic motivation, process vs outcome goals, and how our available resources impact our ability to be consistent in the long term!

How do we get better at racing? We need to race! Racing is a skill that is developed through experience, and yes, you'll make some mistakes along with the way - that's NORMAL. Coach Sara Manderscheid joins the show to discuss the lessons we can learn from racing, how to learn the RIGHT lessons from your races (good or bad!) and more!
- What do we mean when we say "racing is a skill"?
- Racing enough to develop the skill of racing without racing all the time!
- How do you communicate about racing & race planning with someone who is new or never really raced before?
- What do we mean when we say "the goal is to finish strong" in a race?
- What do we mean by "peak fitness" and why can't we race our fastest possible races all the time?
- Troubleshooting common race errors and what we can learn from them
- "I was trying to run faster but my legs wouldn't turn over!"
- "I kept pushing harder and harder but my pace kept slowing down!"
- "I went out at xx pace... why couldn't I hold it?"
- "It felt like my whole body just shut down at mile (10/16/22, etc) - what happened?
- "Why do I need to adjust my race plan when it's hot/humid, etc?"
Sara's mission is to deliver customized training plans, motivation, inspiration, and support for committed runners looking to take their training to the next level. She meets the athlete where they are to create the right plan for them. Running gets to fit into life, not the other way around. With over 15 years of running experience and knowledge, Sara's goal is to help each individual become the strongest version of themselves. Showing up for yourself is the first step, Sara is right there with you in the process to discover your potential and breakthrough to new levels - as a human and as an athlete! ❤️
Running is many things; it's therapeutic, it's good for our mental and physical wellbeing, and it's probably part of your mental health management!

- What running can & can't do for mental health
- Ways that running may contribute to or exacerbate underlying mental health conditions
- The difference between running for exercise & mental health management and training seriously for a big performance goal
- Access to therapy & healthcare equity
- Some signs that talking to a therapist might be better than going for a run
- and more!
