As a running coach, I get questions all the time on from runners of all experience levels and I LOVE taking the time to answer them. There was one specific question that I recently saw in a Facebook group for a local running group that I wanted to pass on to you and get your response. Am I right in the way I responded or would you have answered differently?

I invite you to download this week's episode and take us along on your next run. Then check out our past episodes to learn even more!

This is another episode following our Motivation Mile format, meaning that we want to share with you the motivation you need, encourage you on your way, and provide those critical running tips to help you on your own running journey – all in the time it takes to run a mile. And if you're wondering, we do answer all those questions during our short mile.

We appreciate our sponsor - Great 8 Virtual Races. As they prepare to launch their next race in the Run Across America series, they want to offer you a special deal to catch up and be ready for this next race. As such, you can sign up for a two-fer deal - or rather, get two races fer the price of one. Don't forget, when you sign up, you'll receive a beautiful, full colored Tyvek bib. Once you submit your time you'll receive 3.5" medals to celebrate your achievement! To sign up (or get more information), head over to the Run Across America: California link and choose the bundle. What better way to kick off your year than running two races (choose a 5K/10K/half marathon all for the same price) and getting ready for your third?

Come check us out on Twitter (@motivatemetorun), come join us in our Motivate Me To Run group on Facebook, get updates at our Motivate Me To Run page on Facebook, and even our show notes at motivatemetorun.com. If you have any questions you would like me to cover then email me at alex@motivatemetorun.com.

Finally - if you have appreciated this or any of our episodes, we would love to have you stop by iTunes and leave your all-favorable review! This will give us even more access to big name guests, sponsors with amazing giveaways, and more! Leaving a review will get us that much closer towards those goals! I’ll thank you in advance!

Thank you for listening and look forward to catching up with you next time!

Happy Running!
