A medal doesn't fix anything in your life - Molly Seidel

Molly Seidel calls her Olympic medal the coolest experience of her life. She also says it didn't fix anything. She poured everything she was into it and came out the other side the same person. In this episode of Frodeno Going Mental, Jan Frodeno sits down with Molly Seidel— in town for UTMB and to talk about blowing up at mile 55 of Western States and finishing anyway, why she left the marathon before it broke her again, the coach whose real job is to pull the reins rather than push, why she gaslights herself on every descent, and what a year of pretending to be retired taught her. A conversation about why she keeps going back out when she already knows the medal won't be the answer. Enjoy this episode! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
