Now! The best time to start running

Running by Dawn

12/01/23 • 36 min

Well...hello December! It's holiday time of year! Whether you're celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Bodhi Day, or just New Years, this is a time for celebration. With all the celebration comes a lot of feasting, some extra time with others, and hopefully some reflecting and setting goals for the coming year. My invitation today...don't wait! Whatever your running goals are for the coming year, start now. What if you haven't thought about your running goals for next year...or even this year. Start now! Don't wait until January 1st...or 15th...or Feb 12th...okay...now it's too late so what's the point. None of that attitude! The best time to start is now. Don't wait! Hit the ground running now so by January you are coasting into your goals, not huffing and puffing chasing them.

Truce with the Marathon

Running by Dawn

12/15/23 • 46 min

For me, and I'm sure many others, the marathon is almost unattainable. Don't get me wrong, I've run marathons, six of them, but it's all been quite a battle and I've come out beaten. Everything from cramped legs, sick stomach, getting lost on the course, having a bad mindset, weather challenging, and even a little train have kept me from feeling like the marathon was something I could grasp onto. So...instead of call that good, I've applied the "get back on the bike" mentally and I just keep trying. This episode is all about the next attempt, marathon #7. How will it go this time?

Rest and Recovery

Running by Dawn

09/08/23 • 34 min

We often think that if we just work harder, longer, and fight through the pain, we'll improve. Actually, that's not always the case. Often this is just a recipe for disaster and what we'd be better off doing is resting. What? How is that possible? We are not machine...we are people and our bodies need rest and recovery. Come find out the many ways to give your body and mind these much needed breaks, no matter your running level or training focus.
P.S. Please forgive me. I said episode 29 in the podcast. This is actually episode 30. Who knew we were cruising along so quickly.

Girl Stuff

Running by Dawn

03/29/24 • 42 min

Girls and women alike have a few extra things to consider when adding running into their lives. Some of these issues were a little challenging to discuss and I surprised myself as I reflected on some of the intense issues with body changes from girls to women, managing the annoying but very important menstral cycle, body image and taking care of our bodies, and let's not forget the gap between genders. This one has a lot. Buckle up!

I See Blue

Running by Dawn

09/22/23 • 35 min

In running book, Running the Edge, author Tim Catalano describes the loving of running or catching the running bug as "seeing blue". Last year, we used this concept for the Cross-Country team that I coach, as our theme for the season. It was fun to see their excitement as many of them saw "blue" for the first time. Come reflect with me on the love of running and some tips if you haven't found that love quite yet.
