Helping you to become the runner you want to be
Many runners train as hard as they can every time they run. If they are not exhausted by the end of a workout, they feel they have not maximized their time. This leads to a plateau, boredom, injury or burnout. Wouldn’t it be nice to make progress without having to feel so tired all the time?

We all want to become better runners and better humans. We know there are steps that should be taken to move us along this path. But life keeps getting in the way and the excuses are so easily found. Without a plan for moving forward, we will fall behind. In this episode, we go narrower than a ...
If comparison is the thief of joy, judgment is the subtle temptation to steal. In this episode we continue to discuss our need to compare ourselves and how our desire to pass judgment on everything we see leads to the need to compare. Listen and enjoy, but please don’t judge.

It’s getting close to the end of the year, which means it’s time to look back and see what we can learn from the past year. Problems, challenges, and obstacles were all there to teach lessons, and if we do not take the time to figure out what the lesson was, we will be spending 2020 reliving the ...

No one likes being hurt. You lose your running routine. You can lose some fitness if you are out for too long. What about the smaller aches and pains? Reminders that you ran that day. A twinge as you run down the street. Soreness when you wake up or try to fall asleep. Does running need to...
Goals are great. Plans are useful. What about when you carefully choose a goal and follow a plan and just seem to keep missing? The important ingredient missing from a standard training plan is to continue building and fostering belief. Without belief in the possibility of the result, you will n...
Thanksgiving is a time to gather with family and think about the things that we are grateful for. It is a wonderful time to reflect and just be. Yes, there can be a lot to do, especially if you are hosting, but it’s also a time to sit back and relax and just enjoy. How many times do we just do t...
