Your finish time tells you how fast you ran. Your reflection tells you how you can GROW!
After finishing my 9th marathon at Wineglass, just 2 minutes shy of my PR, I discovered something powerful. Even though I missed my traditional marathon PR, I actually ran an AGE-GRADED PR at 46!
And it reminded me why EVERY runner should take the time to reflect after a race.
In this episode of the Healthy Runner Podcast, I'm walking you through 5 post race reflection questions to help you celebrate your wins, learn from your challenges, and become a stronger, healthier, and more confident runner.
You'll learn:
✅ Why reflecting after a race is just as important as preparing for one
✅ How to identify what went well during your training and on race day
✅ What my biggest Wineglass Marathon mistake taught me about race strategy
✅ Why life stress, sleep, and recovery matter when evaluating your performance
✅ How I used mental toughness strategies to push through miles 19–26
✅ Why missing a traditional PR doesn't mean you didn't improve
