Run!

By now, you’ve probably discovered that there are two things that I really love; one is cookies and the other is running...Long distance, ultra-remote, high elevation, endless miles, sucking down gel calories all day kind of running.

But if I’m honest, I never used to like running more than the length of a football field. I mean, I love to sprint and outsmart defenders and catch footballs but running long distances NEVER sounded exciting.

Looking back on it, I never liked to run far because I wasn’t good at it--my legs would hurt, calves would be on fire, and I couldn’t seem to ever catch my breath.

On top of all of that, I didn’t want to feel like I was always struggling and not in control. And I think that’s a big part of why most of us don’t do things that are as difficult as running.

We don’t want to be seen as the beginner; we don’t want to be seen struggling or feeling silly.

I’ve always said that running is simple, it’s just not easy.

Over the next four weeks, I’m going to give you what I wish I had when I started running.

I’m going to demystify the subject and show you exactly how to go from zero miles to hero smiles (bad joke).

I’m going to teach you the stretches you’ll need to do before and what to do after you finish each run.

I'm going to teach you how to breathe efficiently, move efficiently, and even how to think efficiently--I call it, Rasta Mentality.

I’m going to lay out a progressive running program for you to follow week by week so you can build your endurance, minimize setbacks (like shin splints) and feel confident when lacing up your shoes.

The benefits of running go so much further than what I feel in the moment physically. Running gives me clarity, peace of mind, and freedom. It’s my church. It’s my superpower.

I’m so stoked to see what kind of results you are going to have over the next four weeks we train together!
