Adam Pawlikiewicz Mesa on Ultra Running and Self Acceptance

In this short episode, Adam Pawlikiewicz Mesa reflects on his relationship with ultra running and why he sees endurance sports as a double-edged sword. What began as a way to explore his limits and better understand himself also forced him to confront expectations, self-judgment, and the fine line between growth and harm. Rather than focusing on performance, this conversation looks at endurance as a practice of listening, awareness, and self-acceptance. It connects closely with themes explored in a previous episode with Ria Xi, where running showed up as a tool for agency and growth rather than achievement.
