A super special runner asked me to write about moving past mental running barriers which I did. In writing that I thought it might also to look at tips and tricks for getting through a bad run as it’s happening too. I’m not talking ‘all recovery runs suck' here but a whole other level of...

For at least a year now, maybe longer it’s been bugging me - getwifed that is. That’s the name I grabbed when I thought about starting a blog way, way back in 2015.
