I’m always amazed now that I’m doing longer runs that when I first started that 60 seconds was to much. And now I’m running for 28 minutes nonstop. I do love 💓 this thing called running 🏃‍♀️

All those going out today have a good run. And as I Trainers keep reminding us it’s not the speed but the distance. We can all do this. Take it easy and just keep going.

You will be. Don’t look ahead to runs coming. Just turn on the app when session time. Remember your body is ready.

Running is really a mental game now. The little voice inside keeps telling you to stop because you are in pain. But you know that you can do it.

So need to to turn the negative voice completely. Remember everyone has to fight that voice when we’re are starters.

You have this.
