Thanks so much for this - while I don't wish suffering on anyone, it is validating to hear that you have a lot of people talk about this experience. It seems pretty universal and the feedback I've gotten shows that. Looking forward to checking out your podcast!
Absolutely. As just one example, I spoke to someone recently who is doing a multi-day run from London to Barcelona, one of his major reasons why is that he felt empty after a previous John O’Groats to Lands’ End challenge finished and needed something new.
Hope you enjoy the pod - always interested to know what people think. Thanks.
We speak to so many runners on our podcast who sat exactly this. The post race/challenge blues are definitely real.
Love the framing of them as the last part of the race/run. Thanks for the post.

What an epic challenge!! I'll have to check that out. The need to replace the goal is definitely powerful. Thank you <3
