Yeah, I’ve been there a lot. When the pain hits, I break the run into tiny chunks—like “just another 200 meters” or “just another beat of my heart.” I keep my eyes on the finish line, remind myself why I started, and push that mental mantra until the pain fades into background noise. If it still feels impossible, I use it as a sign that I’m growing stronger, not as a stop sign. So I keep moving, even if my legs feel like jelly. It’s all about turning pain into fuel.
