The Long and The Short Of It

255. Pacing


Listen Later

In this year's annual running episode, Jen brings Pete a new metaphor for life that she has found through her habit of running, and together they noodle on how else the idea of pacing might show up in our daily lives.

Specifically, in this episode Jen and Pete talk about:

  • How might beginning a habit at a slower pace help to establish the habit itself?
  • What is the relationship between pacing and effort?
  • What tools might we use to pace ourselves through certain tasks or with certain goals?
