#52 How Far Can We Push Our Potential? | Stefanie Corgel

Stefanie Corgel is a runner, strength coach, entrepreneur, and founder of Good Pain LA. In this conversation, we discuss her journey from college strength coach to online fitness entrepreneur, what marathon training has taught her about longevity, and why getting faster sometimes means staying healthy rather than pushing harder.We dive into injuries, marathon majors, Boston and New York, chasing ambitious goals without losing yourself in the process, and the lessons learned from nearly blacking out during the London Marathon. Stef also shares her approach to strength training for runners, balancing performance with long term health, and how running has evolved from a personal pursuit into an opportunity to lead and build community.Chapters00:00 College Strength Coach to Online Fitness Entrepreneur04:02 Training for Life at 7012:19 Getting Faster: Injuries, Tokyo & Marathon Goals22:00 Why Boston Is Running's Super Bowl32:09 Why New York Will Always Be Special34:32 How Far Can We Push Our Potential?42:59 Chasing Sub-3s Without Losing Yourself47:04 Strength Training for Runners53:55 Building Good Pain LA & Becoming a Leader59:18 Evolving as a Leader in the Running CommunityFollow Stef:instagram.com/stefcorgel/Follow The People Run Podcast:instagram.com/thepeoplerunpodcast/Music: instagram.com/mech__beats/
