Once upon a time, I ran ten miles and no one was chasing me.
It was a bucket list thing, to run the Bobby Crim 10-mile road race in my hometown. So I suited up and, in a matter of just over 2.5 hours, managed to lose about 4 pounds. Ha.

But I finished. And the lessons I learned running that race can help YOU defeat overwhelm and keep momentum going when things get hard.
