Feeling stuck in your running? Hitting a plateau despite following your training plan?

In this episode, Coach G from GMacSpurr Coaching, breaks down why more mileage isn’t always the answer - and how mindset, not just effort, might be the key to your next breakthrough.

We’ll explore the hidden reasons behind running plateaus, how pressure and burnout show up for back-of-the-pack and middle-of-the-pack runners, and what it really takes to move forward when progress stalls.

If you're chasing a PB, battling low motivation, or wondering if you’re “doing enough”, this one’s for you.

In this special workshop-turned-podcast, we’re diving deep into the stories that shape how we see ourselves as runners - and how to rewrite them so they actually serve us.

Whether you’ve felt like a "not real runner", struggled with comparison, or just lost your spark, this reflective episode is for you. Grab a notebook and hit play on a mindset reset that will help you:

• Spot the old, limiting stories you’ve been carrying
• Understand how identity shapes your motivation, confidence, and consistency
• Reconnect with your “why” in a way that fuels joyful, sustainable running
• Start writing a new story—one that actually reflects the runner you are (not the one you “should” be)

This isn't about motivation hacks or pushing harder. It's about reclaiming your runner story from a place of self-leadership, truth, and identity.

This is more than a podcast - it’s a mindset workshop you can revisit anytime you feel stuck or disconnected.

Grab a journal. Find a quiet space. And let’s start reclaiming your runner story - one honest, brave reflection at a time.
