5-MINUTE FRIDAY: Me Vs. Me

from Hurdle with Emily Abbate · host iHeartPodcasts

In this installment of Five-Minute Friday, Emily checks in from the Nike headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. After a whirlwind week of travel—flying from Paris back to Brooklyn, and then straight to Oregon—she opens up about overcoming the mental hurdles of getting back onto the running track. Emily reflects on pushing past old narratives of self-doubt during a challenging interval workout, using the experience as a powerful reminder to practice self-grace. Plus, she answers a listener question on how to safely navigate outdoor solo runs while traveling in unfamiliar territory.
