Today we discuss the middle between where you are now and where you want to go, your point-A and your point-B. Whether you are going from a 4 hour to a 3-hour marathon or from a given health concern to being free of that and healthy, we talk about making the process fun and relevant. We look at common issues holding onto the past and looking ahead to the future, without enjoying the present.
