Now! The best time to start running

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.

Treadmill Running

Oh the treadmill! One of the most controversial topics in running. Should you use a treadmill? My answer is "yes" and "no". Really....it depends. Let's discuss when a treadmill would be a great choice and other times where it might hinder your progress.
Also, with holiday season in full swing, please join me with the "Dust off and name your treadmill challenge". It's as simple as it sounds: Dust off (or more) your treadmill, give it a name to make it more endearing to you, and then...use it. Don't have one? Name one at your local gym instead. Either way, snap a picture and post to your favorite social media page with the hashtags: #nameyourtreadmill #dawnrunning #runningbydawnpodcast. Can't wait to see your pictures! Look for my treadmill with its new name on my facebook page.

Safety 101

For myself, my family, kids I coach, and other runners I know...my biggest concern in many ways is safety. If I go out on a run and don't feel safe that run becomes a stressor instead of a stress relief. Over the years I've found many ways to increase my safety and to feel safer, even if there is no immediate threat. Come along as I share these tips today: self-defense, running safely around cars, bikes, and animals, running in the dark, and more. See ya there...and stay safe out there friends!
