💫 Summary:

In this short, exclusive episode, Melissa Hemming shares what it was like to return to the Manchester Road Race — the same event where she was once love-bombed and left heartbroken — this time, on her own terms.

She opens up about the emotional weight of showing up solo, the mix of grief and strength that comes with reclaiming a place tied to someone who once made her feel seen, and how she’s learning to transform those obsessive thoughts into fuel for personal growth.

Melissa reflects on how running — and life — both demand that we keep moving forward, even when our hearts are still catching up. Through honesty, humor, and vulnerability, she reminds listeners that healing isn’t about forgetting; it’s about reclaiming your own story, one mile at a time.
