Have you ever considered where your personal thermostat is set related to your running life and fitness journey? Maybe you need a reset, a cleaning, or a reprogramming in your running program.

We discuss how we always return to the 'default' setting we have for ourselves related to running. Just like a thermostat maintains a desired temperature, our mind adjusts our internal settings to align with our running goals!

We also have comfort 'zones' related to running that we often get stuck in. If we don't evaluate how our fitness after 40 and running is going, we may not even realize we are staying in that defined comfort zone.

Improving in running entails intentionally expanding this comfort zone by venturing into new experiences, taking on challenges, and embracing discomfort. Small steps, consistently taken, can lead to significant gains in running!
