Episode #152 The privilege of the grind

Key Takeaways:

Know whether you're a racer or a trainer — it changes how you approach motivation

Routine isn't just about training; it anchors your focus, energy, and mental health

When the grind feels heavy, ask yourself: do I need rest, a tweak, or just a perspective shift?

Small changes — a different pool, a new trail, one fun thing per week — can have an outsized impact

The grind is a privilege. Reframe it, and everything changes.
