In part 3 of this video series, marathon runner Molly Seidel (ByGollyMolly12) teaches others about the importance of working on her mental health daily.
Molly Seidel is one of only three American women to medal in the Olympics in one of the most brutal of events, the marathon. Perhaps what's even more remarkable about Molly is her success in overcoming a series of mental health challenges.People don't understand the sheer amount of daily work that goes into any of these things, whether it's running or whether it's mental health.
I think there are two kinds of runners. There are the people that are very good at it; they run, and then they can relax all day. They can just play video games. Shut the brain off. I would go absolutely nuts if I tried to do that. I need to have stuff outside that I'm working on. So for me, being able to have some sort of structured time and structured assignments is really mentally healthy.
It's nice having something else outside of running to focus on. I really don't think I'm that much of an abnormality. I see so many people around me in this sport who have, maybe not to the intensity that I have it, but some degree of either OCD tendencies, or I see a lot of women who probably have undiagnosed ADHD within this sport. Because we all gravitate toward this; I don't think it's the kind of thing where it causes it.
I think it is really a spectrum, and people can have it to varying degrees. Those degrees can change throughout your life, depending on where you're at. There are times where these things are very manageable for me, and there are other times where it takes over my entire life. It really is very situation dependent.
