Her latest experience led her to learn how to create new goals, find mindfulness in running, and break routines to experience more. But that didn’t stop her from setting a new burly goal – running a 50 miler! The trials she’s faced through achieving the goal, and before and after running Boston are insurmountable. It was so fun to get to meet her in person along with some other mother runners I’ve met on this podcasting journey, and she is the epitome of toughness. My guest today, Jennifer Whynot, had this experience after accomplishing a massive goal of qualifying for and running the 2021 Boston Marathon. What happens when you hit a dream come true and have worked so hard toward that goal for so long? I know I’ve experienced a sense of feeling lost or lacking control in those seasons, and sometimes it’s hard knowing what to do once you hit a goal. We grow through the challenges we endure. Just as muscles need to tear to get stronger, and airplanes need friction in order to fly, and bees need resistance to get into flight, we also can’t have victory without a struggle. The short, quick, and sweeping motions from front to back are what create enough lift to make it possible. A bee’s wings are not rigid they twist and rotate during flight. It is curious how a bee is even able to fly, considering its makeup, but it can. The difference in the pressure above and below the wing creates a force on each that lifts the wing up into the air and allows the plane to fly. Each challenge is like a micro-tear it can feel painful in the moment, but as we recover, if we allow that micro-tear (or pain) to heal properly, our challenge will make us stronger.Īirplanes fly because of the friction in the wingspan. We can adopt a similar concept through our challenges.
You have to break down your muscles so they can grow stronger. Over time, as long as you’re working it right, these micro-tears will work together to create a greater muscle mass. We perform our bicep curls and leg lifts in order to create micro-tears in our muscles so that they recover stronger. In order to get stronger, that’s exactly what we do each strength training session. It seems strange that, in order for your muscles to get stronger, you need to essentially tear them first.

They need to see me win - yours do too!Īs a running enthusiast, I believe life is one massive marathon, so if you’re ready to jump into the race, lace up those shoes and let’s go! Step into the fire with me because I know you will come out stronger. I felt so scattered, and I made all the excuses! What I realize now, after hitting a massive goal of qualifying for the Boston Marathon, is that my kids need me to pursue my own goals so I can be their best example. I thought I needed to be everything to everyone, but in the process I lost myself. A wife, mom, writer, runner, and Jesus lover!
