Description
Ever found yourself in complicated conversations with relatives like Aunt Gladys who just can't seem to grasp your passion for running, especially during the holiday season? And what about those other challenges that come with the festive season, like finding time for micro movements or dealing with the dreaded "shoe shaming"? Buckle up, because we're about to take a sprint through these issues and more!Running is more than just a form of exercise, it's a sanctuary, a therapy and so much more. It's about enjoying and appreciating the process, the rhythm and the power it gives us, not just achieving specific goals. This episode is all about celebrating this and helping others understand it too. We're also touching on how to balance running and family time during the holiday festivities, how to handle awkward comments about our performance or gear, and more importantly, how to keep our enthusiasm burning even when faced with the chilly weather.We're not stopping there. We're also rebranding 'selfishness' for the greater good. Being a runner doesn't mean you're selfish. It just means you understand the importance of self-care and taking time for yourself. So, forget about the mom guilt, and let's talk about how to stay motivated during the cold months. Let's discuss the importance of having a supportive network and an understanding coach. Let's celebrate the victories, relish the balance in our training, and remember the importance of treating yourself as a whole person. So, join us as we run into the holiday season together, "sleigh" the holidays and, who knows? Maybe even Aunt Gladys will come around and join you for a Jingle Jog.
