According to Wikipedia, "Confidence comes from a Latin word 'fidere' which means "to trust"; therefore, having self-confidence is having trust in one's self." In this episode we hear the words of six runners as they discuss confidence. And Stacy manages to tell a story of her favorite unexpected race win down in Lynchburg, Tennessee at the Oak Barrel Half Marathon. That win would never have happened without a healthy dose of confidence.
Races are returning to our community this weekend and possibly yours very soon. We hope that you will take some of these words to channel your own confidence but also recognize that it has been over a year without races. Be kind to yourself. Do not compare to your pre-pandemic self. In the words of Deena Kastor "Find a way to be your best in this moment."
We will be taking a short break from our weekly podcasts but when we return it will be with several new speakers and topics so you'll have more to listen to at once. Until we speak again, remember to BE THE INSPIRATION.
