In this episode of Running to the Castle, you’ll learn 5 practical strategies to stay consistent with your runDisney training—especially if running isn’t the center of your life.
Dr. Ali shares the top struggles runners report, like motivation, consistency, and long runs, and breaks down how to overcome them.
From having honest conversations with your partner about priorities, to throwing perfection out the window, to focusing on the bare minimum that keeps you moving forward, she gives real-life examples of how to fit training into a busy schedule.
You’ll also discover why finding the right time of day for you matters, and how even a quick 20-minute workout can help you build fitness and keep momentum.
This episode is all about balancing real life with training so you can reach the start line confident and cross the finish line strong.

Hi, I'm Dr. Ali
I've been running for 15+ years and been in the rehab space since 2012 when I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy Degree. I get injury prone runDisney runners across the finish line without feeling broken.
