Get Better at Running Without Running With Pauline Lopez
Coach Bennett sits down with Taekwondo athlete and coach Pauline Lopez to talk about the lessons she’s carrying from a lifetime in martial arts into a new chapter as a runner.
Pauline shares how being told Taekwondo “wasn’t for girls” only made her more determined to step onto the mat, eventually leading her to compete at the highest levels of the sport. She reflects on training alongside her dad, chasing the Olympic dream, learning to move beyond wins and medals, and discovering that some of the most important parts of sport happen in the process. These days, Pauline is finding new ways to apply those lessons to running. She talks about this with Coach B, talk about reframing “I have to” into “I get to,” showing up when training gets hard, being intentional about rest, staying present, and remembering that no single pursuit has to become your entire identity.
