Podcast: Episode 74 – Running Won’t Fix Your Mental Health

This week in the podcast I dive into one of the things that people first said to me when I was having a severe depressive episode: “You should exercise more!”

It makes no sense for someone who is depressed, and it makes even less sense to someone who is depressed and already running 30km a week. Recently having had a period where I couldn’t run I had the opportunity to look at what my mental health would be like without running. I always thought it would suffer, and you know sometimes it did, but I also have lots of other things in my toolbox too.  So this week I talk a bit about what that might look like.

    Hi Zoey,
    After only join yesterday, i wanted to say a big thank you especially for the podcast on mental health. My running has taken a major back step since November and I joined for the community feel and motivation. I am everything you said in the podcast and it came at a perfect time, I needed to hear that.
    So perfectly spoken too.

    Thank You:)
    Justine

      It is so lovely when you get to hear what you need to hear! We all need those step backs every now and then but I am looking forward to following along with your running journey!
