The Anatomy of a DNF | Kim & Carolyn
September 27, 2022

Carolyn Coffin and Kim Senechal

Episode 104
Today we discuss a subject that’s not talked about nearly enough….the DNF (did not finish).
We start by sharing about our most recent DNFs which happened for entirely different reasons. Then we explore:
- Other reasons why a DNF might happen
- How much dwelling on it is productive
- Why processing your feelings is important
- How to mine for any hidden lessons
- What we mean by “little quits” and what to do if they become a pattern
- How to move on from a DNF and even help others in the process
- Why forgiving yourself is key
We hope this episode is informative & instructive, and for anyone who has experienced a DNF or disappointing race in their running career, we also hope it makes you feel less alone.
