Description
This week's episode of The Sunday Shakeout features a talk on mastering the basics of running and why you should focus on making robust systems instead of detail-oriented goals.
So often, we runners get caught up in the trends or "hacks" that you can employ to get better at running. But the truth is: there are no "hacks". There are no "secrets" to success in the world of running. It's all about mastering the basics day after day, even if it gets boring. But if you can learn how to nail the fundamentals and come back everyday, you will be a great runner.
Secondly, I talk all about the difference between being process-oriented and goal-oriented. Humans often want to look on their closet and see a big piece of paper saying, "GOAL: SUB 3 HOUR MARATHON ON MARCH 13". However, they often fail because they don't have the SYSTEMS in place to bring them to their goals. After all, winners and losers both have the same goals, it's just the winners who employed the best systems.
Please consider giving The Sunday Shakeout a five-star review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. That goes a long way in supporting the growth on this podcast.
Thank you so much to all of my listeners for the support
