Have a question about running? Ever wondered what a Running for Real guest has been up to since you heard them interviewed? Would you like to get to know the Running for Real community better?

On Weekly Strides, Tina will answer answer your questions, catch up with previous podcast guests, and chat with members of the #Running4Real Superstars. The episodes are short, fun, and rewarding - the podcast equivalent of runners’ strides!

If you have a question that you’d like answered, you can email [email protected] and she’ll pass it along to Tina!

Our sponsor this week is…  Running for Real!

The Mile 20: Mental Training to Win Your Race course will give you the mental training techniques to not only become more confident as a runner, but as a person. We begin with that foundation in building you up as a human being first because we can't be confident as runners until we take care of our confidence in ourselves. You're also going to learn techniques to handle every race day situation that could be thrown at you. You're going to have specific tactics and tools that will help you handle race day panic, race day stress, things that could go wrong. You're going to learn to understand the signals that your body is giving you during the race and how to handle them and also how to protect yourself from feelings of failure.

We runners can be quite hard on ourselves and this is going to help you to have a healthy perspective. This is a 12 week course. Each week we'll have a video for you, and pdf worksheets that you can download and fill in to help really bring home those messages. 

For one week only, starting on August 8th, this course is going to go on sale for $100 off. That will be $197 instead of the usual $297. It will then go up to $297 for a week and then I will shut the doors because it's really important that we have accountability buddies so we can work together through this training course and go through it as a community. That is really important to me. This is only going to be open for two weeks, so go here to find out more and add yourself to the waitlist to guarantee that you get one of those spots for the first week.
