Join us as Zach Griffin explains how he originally started running, ran 13 marathons, and eventually fell back in love with running in his 40s. He is even seeing improvements in times and recently won his age division in a half-marathon!We discuss how Zach uses Hal Higdon's training plan, weight trains a few times per week, and advocates for stretching post-run and foam rolling for injury prevention. As a father, he emphasizes the importance of making a conscious effort to get his kids outside and he hopes they will follow in his running foot steps.Zach recommends listening to your body, taking a rest day if you need to, and practicing gratitude. He truly feels that he shows up better for family, friends, and work if he gets his run/ workout in and he shares his secrets for staying motivated (spoiler alert, it's peer pressure and accountability from friends in a unique way). Listen in as he shares his perspectives on running motivation and his goals for the next 10 years.A few of Zach's favorites-Best Neutral Running Shoes: Brooks Launch 8 ShoesRunning With Airpods: Apple Airpod ProsSpibelt Racebelt; Best way to carry phone while runningFitBit app for tracking runsApple MusicNike Run AppThe Runners Book of Daily Motivation by Kevin NelsonMake sure to visit www.runningwithgrit.com for all things related to running after age 40.
