The Runner Dudes | Episode 24 | Finding Your "Why"

In this episode, Micheal and Dusty dive deep into the challenge of rediscovering your "why" when motivation runs dry. With honesty and humor, they explore burnout, discipline vs. motivation, mental health, rest, and the importance of starting slow—whether you’re new to running or returning after a break. They reflect on personal journeys through sobriety, PTSD, and identity, emphasizing the power of community, self-care, and grace. If you've lost your spark or are afraid to take the first step, this conversation offers both insight and encouragement to keep moving forward—one honest step at a time.
