Hosted by PKSRUNS, a 45 year old runner, mentor, and creator — this series offers thoughtful, grounded reflections designed to keep you company through every mile.

Boredom isn’t failure — it’s part of the terrain.
By day twelve of RED January, things might be feeling a bit… dull. The route is familiar, your body knows what to do, and the novelty has worn off. But boredom isn’t a problem — it’s just what happens when the noise drops and routine settles in.
In this episode, we explore how boredom often signals a shift — from running as stimulation to running as quiet, steady practice. You don’t need to fight the feeling or find a deeper meaning. Let the run be uneventful. Let your mind wander (or not). Just keep moving.
Boredom doesn’t mean it’s not working. It means you’re still here — and that matters.
About the Host
The PKS Running Club is run by Paul (PKSRUNS) — a runner and creator who believes that running doesn’t have to be extreme, perfect, or impressive to matter.
Paul started running later in life and has built his way to a 2:45 marathon, not through shortcuts or hype, but through consistency, patience, and learning how to fit running around real life — work, family, tired legs, busy heads.
The PKSRUNS podcast is a space for honest reflections on running, training, discipline, doubt, and progress. Some episodes are practical. Some are reflective. Many are simply a reminder that short still counts, easy is allowed, and you don’t have to prove anything.
This isn’t about elite performance or rigid plans. It’s about showing up on ordinary days, building a relationship with running that lasts, and finding something steady in the middle of life being busy, noisy, and imperfect.
If you run for clarity, routine, mental health, or just because it helps you feel a bit more like yourself — you’ll feel at home here.
