This podcast is a beginning runner's journey to a 5K. We will run together to keep each other accountable with a goal of running a 5K race in the spring of 2025. I have been running as a hobby and to stay in reasonable physical shape off and on for 16 years. I have only once ran in a 5K and that was 16 years ago. Recently sidelined for a leg injury, my doctor told him to ease back into running. As he has healed up, and at 51 years old, I am beginning his running journey again. While running, I will share insights, motivation, and other observations that have added value to my life. I hope they will add value to your life. I hope you enjoy my unique perspective and sense of humor to keep you entertained and enjoying the time together and working toward a goal of better physical fitness. This extemporaneous podcast will keep you entertained, motivated and growing as you continue your journey to your own physical fitness goals. If you are just beginning your running journey, let's hold each other accountable through this podcast.

Over the hump
in this 30 minute workout, I run for 4 minutes then walk for only 2 minutes. Now we are running more than we are walking and covered 2.6 miles in the 30-minute workout. This is the next step in our goal to run 5K (3.1 miles). Winter weather continues to intrude on our workout sessions as the cold and snowy conditions create difficult conditions to overcome.

Surviving Quitters Day
The Second Friday in January is known as Quitter's Day as most people's New Year's Resolutions do not survive beyond this. In this episode, I work to overcome external and internal obstacles such as the weather and push myself to complete the 30 minute workout in cold, snowy conditions. We talk about being deliberate about the way we spend our money and our time noting that these decisions are a reflection of what we value. I hope you enjoy this week's edition, that it supports you on your journey and that it adds value for you.

10% Better
In this episode, we are working to increase our workout by just ten-percent. This episode includes 30 second runs approximately every 5 minutes. This is a way to improve our physical health as well as work our way into the workout routine. In this episode, I discuss the importance of understanding the vision of your goals, understanding how accomplishing your goals can impact your life and ensuring that you set SMART goals that are within your own control. SMART goals are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time limited. Smart goals can be an overall goal, such as to run in a 5K and can also be daily, such as to include a 30-minute exercise in your daily routine. I hope you enjoy today's episode. In this episode, I walked/ran 1.63 miles in 30 minutes.

Beginning the Journey
As we begin to transition into a runner, we begin with a 30-minute walk. Join me for a 30-minute walk where I share information about understanding our habits, understanding what causes us to engage in habitual behaviors and how we can commit to changing our habits into healthier lifestyle choices that improve our overall health. This episode is well-placed as the upload is at the beginning of the year, just in time for a New Year's resolution. This podcast will help you to ensure that 2025 is a new year and not just a different year. While this is well placed as a New Year upload, it is important to note that you can change your habits anytime. This episode will help equip you with the skills to begin your running journey.
