My 5K Training Journey So Far: Wins, Struggles, and Lessons
from Break Limits · host alejandro_orozco-us
In this episode of the Break Limits Podcast, I share the real story behind training for my very first 5K. From starting at 315 lbs, dropping weight, and then facing the challenge of building consistency again, running has tested me in new ways.I talk about the struggles — like pushing too hard too soon, dealing with ankle pain, and the wins that kept me going, like walk/run intervals, better gear, and focusing on consistency over perfection.With race day just around the corner, I also share my mindset heading in: nervous but excited, and ready to prove that showing up is what matters most.👉 Follow the show so you don’t miss next week’s episode, where I’ll share the full recap of my first race.
