Have you ever signed up for a race thinking you’d just run for fun - only to feel that invisible pressure to hit a personal best? You’re not alone. In this episode, Coach G shares her personal story of signing up for a 5K at the Singapore Marathon with zero PB goals, and the mindset strategies she uses to let go of performance pressure and reconnect with running for pure enjoyment.

We’ll dive into how to:

• Recognise the old “PB pressure” thoughts and stop them from hijacking your runs
• Create goals that are about joy, presence, and consistency - not time or numbers
• Use simple mindset experiments to make training and racing more fun
• Build sustainable habits and confidence without chasing performance

If you’re ready to step off the performance treadmill, enjoy running again, and run stronger, happier, and freer, this episode is for you.
