The Milestone Pursuit

As featured in The Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2020/may/09/fit-in-my-40s-silently-arguing-mindful-running-coach) this audio coaching session, where you download the recording and listen to it on the run as if I'm there with you, is about how to use running to practice mindfulness. It still involves running (all easy), and specifically connecting your body to your brain and being more conscious of the world around you.


Recorded on 11.04.20, with a fresh new 4 min intro added on 13.11.20, these are things people have said about it;


"Ran with this session this morning. Loved it! Esp coz I needed a break from a rather chaotic household with kids 😂the park was much quieter so perfect setting 😊. Thanks Steve!"


“I discovered your podcast via the Guardian’s “Fit in My Forties” column at the weekend and ran to the first episode, Mindfulness in Running, on Sunday and again this morning. In a word, it was brilliant. Fan letters are not normally my thing, but I wanted to let you know how inspirational I found this episode. I never noticed the distance or any tiredness because I was so caught up in the moment and reflecting on what was happening with my feet, head, arms etc. I like to think that my technique is improving as a result of your gentle guidance “

Give it all you've got - 10 x 200m as hard as you can

In this audio coaching session, where you download the recording and listen to it on the run as if I'm there with you, we are doing 10 sets of 200m as hard as you can with 200m walk or jog recovery in between (I walked slowly!). It's all about getting legs moving, turning over at high speed, recruiting different muscle fibres than 'normal' but without pushing yourself too much aerobically. An endorphin / serotonin / dopamine / norepineephrine releaser.


Comes with a free rant about social media and a brief mention of imposter syndrome during the warm-up jog.


Recorded on 13.04.20, Easter Monday
