In today’s episode, we’re tackling an exciting and empowering topic that every runner can relate to—how to keep chasing your running goals, no matter how the years go by! The fear of running out of time to achieve your biggest dreams is something most of us have felt at some point. But guess what? Time doesn’t have to be a limiting factor—it can be your ally! Whether you’re wondering if you still have time to get faster or if you can still crush that marathon PR, this episode will inspire you to see your running journey in a whole new light.
Join me and Sara as we dive into the mindset shifts and practical tips that will help you embrace the process, celebrate every step of the way, and keep making progress. We’ll talk about how to set goals that align with where you are right now, how to adjust expectations without giving up on your dreams, and how recovery, consistency, and time management play key roles in achieving your goals. Whether you're 25, 75, or somewhere in between, this episode is all about keeping your running fire burning bright and chasing your big goals with excitement and confidence! Let’s go!
