Episode 67. How To Make Running Fun (Again).

You do know that running is supposed to be fun... right? This is a big and important episode. That's why I brought the best Coach Bennett to the show! That's right! Coach tammie bennett is back! She's the mindset performance coach that we all know and love and she's back for this most excellent episode. Running is supposed to be fun! Doesn't mean it's always going to be easy. Doesn't mean it's not supposed to be hard and challenging. It just means that running is supposed to be fun. And maybe those hardest and most challenging parts are supposed to be the most fun parts of it all!

When running is fun it means your ending runs wanting to run again and not dreading the next run. It means that you are being a better teammate to yourself. It means you have a better chance at getting better and having fun doing it. So let’s make sure that running is fun (again).

I hope you have fun listening to this episode.

Cheers,
Coach Bennett
