In this episode of Running to the Castle, you’ll learn why missing runs doesn’t mean you’ve failed — it means you’re human. 

I share how I got a late start on my runDisney racetraining and what my last three weeks of workouts really looked like. 

You’ll hear how I gave myself permission to pivot, reframed what “progress” looks like, and got back on track without the all-or-nothing mindset. 

If you’ve been beating yourself up for skipping a run or falling behind, this episode will help you shift that belief and show you how to keep going with confidence.

    Hi, I'm Dr. Ali
    I've been running for 15+ years and been in the rehab space since 2012 when I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy Degree. I get injury prone runDisney runners across the finish line without feeling broken.
