Lots of runners fear the DNF (Did Not Finish) but you don’t have to. On today’s show, Cory and Hayley discuss why you should embrace the DNF.

In this episode we talk about:

  • When to consider a DNF
  • Why pro runners DNF so often in races
  • How to get back to the finish or back home if you DNF
  • Adjusting your running goals after a DNF
  • Overcoming mental challenges like anxiety and disappointment when a run doesn’t go as planned
  • Why embracing the DNF can help you to perform better in races

After months of training you may understandably feel disappointed or frustrated with a DNF. 

We’re here to tell you that embracing and maybe even planning for the possibility of a DNF will help you to come back stronger. Listen to the show to find out how.
