2026-03-25

Why do strong, well-trained athletes sometimes stop before the finish line?


It’s not always physical.

In this episode, we break down:

– The hidden mental triggers that make athletes quit

– How your brain negotiates discomfort

– And what separates finishers from those who step off course

If you’ve ever DNF’d—or felt close to it—this one’s for you.
