Sarah and Molly have a good gab with Brendan Leonard, a.k.a. Semi-Rad, author of the satirical-and-insightful book I Hate Running and You Can Too. The trio talks about:
 
-the love-hate relationship many folks have with running and fitness;
-the need to becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable;  
-the intangible gains running bestows, such as resilience and stoicism; 
-the ins-and-out of self-talk; and, 
-accountability v. inspiration. 
 
In the intro chitchat, Molly details her upcoming hiking adventure, including her greatest irrational fears. Brendan joins the conversation at 14:45.
