Having another goal on the horizon will keep you motivated after you cross the finish line.
. You gun for a personal best, one of those goals you always thought you could achieve but never knew, until now, that you were capable of reaching. Crossing the finish line is one of the proudest moment of your life.
Then, for weeks following this peak experience, you struggle to get out the door. Running, quite simply, has lost its appeal, along with other things. Indeed, thousands of runners feel this post-race depression each year. And for good reason. It’s really tough to suddenly shift from a four- to six-month
back to the routine of everyday life without something big to look forward to or drive you. The higher your emotions soar on the day of achievement, the lower you tend to feel afterward.Post-marathon depression may not be a clinical diagnosis, but it’s real. To put it into context, when you accomplish any goal that you’ve been targeting for months, it’s only normal that a letdown of some sort is inevitable when it’s over.
But there are positives to this. You now have the freedom to sleep in, eat, drink, and socialize as you please. There are no more long runs or early wake-up calls, which can be both a relief and terrifying all at the same time.Post-race depression signs include feeling a little lost, experiencing a lack of motivation to run, yearning for something to look forward to, feeling eager to set a new goal, feeling down, anti-social, sad, or disappointed—even if you hit your goal.
