Let Me Reassure You: The discomfort will end. Everything does.
Its so cool to think of how the developers intended for us to play this and expected how we would feel playing the game would be. The lore written for us being in a loop as well as being this shell is so fucking meta,cool, smart, and fun. It gives meaning as to why we would keep running other than just hitting "start" again.
We run, because we are shells. We may get bits of discomfort and angry, but it is momentary. We keep running because we are in debt, we have desire to keep finding what is waiting for us. Some of us are looking for the reason - and Durandal answers that call and sees our potential. Some of us just want to watch others burn.

"The Marathon. Are they worth your everything?" for me it is worth all that I lose. I dont care about making other shells suffer. I do want to uncover all bits of lore and see whats there.
If anyone wants to run cryo and help a fellow runner see whats waiting out there, reach out :).
I've only done 3 key rooms. I'll be running.
