Chasing Shadows: Battling Dark Thoughts on the Ultra Marathon Trail with Rick James
Let me say it one more time: Running IS Therapy! In this episode, Rick James opens up about battling the dark thoughts that surfaced while he was running an ultra marathon. No one ever talks about the mental 'dark side' that can hit during those long runs—and how it can actually be a turning point. I'm beyond excited for you to tune in and get some insight that might just help you through whatever you're facing, on or off the trail!
