How to Become a Runner When You HATE Running: Savannah Sachdev

Can you run every single day for five years without burning out? Fitness content creator Savannah Sachdev joins Zara McDermott and Dr Emily Prpa to share why the secret to consistency might be making your goals as low-stakes as possible. Savannah opens up about stepping away from target-driven fitness culture, running for mental clarity rather than physical aesthetics, and how daily movement has helped her navigate a recent diagnosis of ADHD and autism. It is a refreshing reminder that movement should help you feel more like yourself - not become another impossible checklist. From joy-led runs to wedding-morning squats, this episode is all about finding an approach to fitness that feels realistic, personal and sustainable.
