In the world of running, the terms &quot;fast&quot; and &quot;slow&quot; are constantly tossed around, but what do they really mean, and why do they matter so much to us? Join coach Kelly in this thought-provoking episode as we dive deep into the complex realm of defining speed and pace in the running community. Coach Kelly posed this very question to the running community on TikTok and Instagram, and the responses were enlightening. What may be considered fast to one person could be seen as slow to another, highlighting the relativity of these terms. Visit our Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/p/C1mY1Y4rtce/) to explore the insightful comments and perspectives shared by fellow runners. While &quot;fast&quot; and &quot;slow&quot; are relative, there&#39;s a captivating reason why they continue to dominate our running conversations. Join us as we explore the psychology behind these labels and why unpacking what they mean to us is a crucial discussion in the running world. It&#39;s time to challenge the assumptions, redefine our perspectives, and embark on a journey of discovery. Tune in and let&#39;s unpack the fascination with speed in running!
