Is your love for running fueling your life—or consuming it? In this episode of Run Thrive Survive, I’m getting real about my own struggles with running becoming too much of a good thing. While running is an amazing tool for mental clarity, confidence, and overall health, there’s a fine line between dedication and obsession.

I’ll break down the warning signs of an unhealthy relationship with running, how to identify when your training is hurting more than helping, and the mindset shifts that can bring balance back. If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting, anxious about missing a run, or like your worth is tied to your performance, this episode is for you.

Let’s redefine what it means to be a strong, dedicated runner—without burning ourselves out. 🎙️🏃‍♀️💙
