160: The Psychological Cost of Chasing PBs

160: The Psychological Cost of Chasing PBs

We’re LIVE from ASICS in London, where Andy, Rick and Sarah explore the psychological toll of constantly chasing a personal best. Together, they discuss how social media and constant comparison are increasing the pressure on runners to always run faster and hit new time goals.

As runners, chasing a PB can be exhilarating and motivating for us and act as a powerful way to stay focused by pushing your limits. But what happens when that drive starts to take a toll? Can it lead to inevitable burnout and anxiety?

The Running Channel Podcast tackles one big topic each episode, amongst helpful tips and light-hearted chat on the latest news in the running world. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner) alongside Rick Kelsey (recovering runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.
