Listen "Episode 24 - “Silence, Stride, and the Suck: The Mindful Miles"
Episode Synopsis
In this introspective episode of RUNPOD, we meet Dr. Himanshu Motalaya — a long-distance runner, cyclist, and occasional swimmer — whose journey through miles mirrors his journey through life. Having conquered numerous half marathons, two full marathons, and a grueling 100 km ultramarathon, Dr. Himanshu shares how running has reshaped not just his body but his entire way of living.A true believer in David Goggins' mantra "embrace the suck", he dives into how endurance sports have taught him discipline, patience, and the quiet strength of consistency. As an introvert, he speaks powerfully about the peace and power found in solitude — where the only sound is his breath, his stride, and the hum of inner focus.This episode is a tribute to those who lace up not for the podium, but for purpose — for clarity, for resilience, and for the strength found in silence.
