In this episode of The Adventure Jogger Podcast, Steven Kornhaus and co-host Valan explore the deep connection between running and mental health. They tackle the highs and lows of ultra running, from the sting of DNFs to the power of mindfulness and emotional resilience on the trails. Valan shares insights from her upcoming athlete-focused workbook, introducing DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) techniques to strengthen your mental game—both in racing and in life. With a mix of humor and hard-earned wisdom, they also dive into the psychology of endurance racing, the struggle to balance training with personal life, and the quirks of trail running culture.
