How do you get started running (and why it might be a good idea)? w/James Van Prooyen & Rich Nicholes of the Ragnar Life Podcast

from 50% Facts · host Jim McDonald

A lot of people grew up running for sports, but plenty of people stop just as soon as they can and never do it again. We ask runners James Van Prooyen & Rich Nicholes to tell us how to get started (or started again). Once you get your ass off the couch, what does the first day of running look like? What should your initial goals look like? What’s a really good way to get and stay motivated? If you get started, will you never want to stop? You can find James and Rich on The Ragnar Life podcast, and on social media as @Jamesvanprooyen and @richnicholes on most social media platforms. We kicked off the show with observations about why it seems like we either have nothing to do…or everything to do.
