One of the things I truly believe in is if you’re passionate about something and you truly love doing it, then you’ll 100% be successful at it. It’s how people make a living doing what they love but nobody said it was easy, you need to put in the work and stay consistent. It takes trying, learning, succeeding and failing to truly make it work, making it all the more rewarding when it goes right. Set a goal but more importantly, draw out a plan to get where you want to go because the only person that can get you there is you.
On this episode of Just In Stride I had a really fun chat with pro ultra trail runner, Emily Hawgood.
Emily grew up on a farm in Zimbabwe and played all sorts of different sports as a kid. She later took a liking to long distance triathlon but with some encouragement from her now coach, turned to running on the trails and she never looked back.
Ultra running became her passion and she now does it professionally. Her results over the years have been impressive and so consistent from race to race, no matter the distance. It’s so clear she loves to run and that passion shines through every time she toes the line. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her finish on the podium at Western States later this year.
