In this Out N Back episode of the Flying RuNR Podcast, we step away from splits and stats and dig into three core principles that shape not just better running — but a healthier relationship with the sport.

This episode breaks down the inspiration behind three songs from The Diary of a Flying Runner:

Listen to Your Body

Eyes on the Prize

Respect the Distance

Each track reflects a lesson most runners only learn the hard way.

🧠 Listen to Your Body

We talk about the difference between discomfort and warning signs, why ignoring fatigue is often praised in running culture, and how learning to listen can actually extend your running life.

This isn’t about being soft — it’s about being smart.

🎯 Eyes on the Prize

What is the prize when you’re not chasing podiums?

This segment explores redefining success, staying focused on personal goals, and resisting the pressure to run someone else’s race. For everyday runners, the prize is often consistency, confidence, and joy — not a time on the clock.

🏃 Respect the Distance

Every distance demands humility.

From half marathons to the full 42.2km, we unpack why the distance always deserves preparation, patience, and respect — and what happens when ego tries to rush the process.

📔 From Miles to Music

These songs weren’t written in a studio — they were written in the miles between sessions, during setbacks, comebacks, and quiet wins. This episode connects the mindset behind the music to the lived experience of runners at every level.
