How To Be A Resilient Runner

Published: Oct. 18, 2023, 4:01 a.m.

On this episode of the Run To The Top Podcast we are talking with Andrejs Birjukovs, a certified coach and multisport athlete whose latest book, \u201cThe Resilient Athlete\u201d, ultimately argues that the true source of strength for any athlete who values performance and improvement isn\u2019t talent, or commitment, or experience - it\u2019s resilience.\xa0

Under the umbrella of this appreciation for resilient running, I ask Andrejs about:

  • how the hero\u2019s journey applies to running
  • how you measure resilience in running
  • why it\u2019s not possible to live long-term with a competitive mindset
  • how we can consistently hit flow states in running
  • what emotional fitness looks like
  • the 3 pillars for energy and vitality in running

And way more! Tune in for a fascinating conversation about the role that resilience plays in running.
