How Simple Challenges Improve Athlete Training

Running can be an isolating sport. It can also be a sport where we just barely get by with what we are doing.  In an effort to bring our athletes together and hold each other accountable while also creating new and lasting habits, we started a series of monthly challenges.  We focused on attainable challenges that focused more on feeling the benefits than being perfect. No better way to make a habit stick!  On today's podcast we dig into: How we set up these challenges Some success stories What we've learned and how you can create these for yourself! Doing the little things or making time for strength can pay off, but we have to see it for ourselves sometimes. Tune-in and then let us know - would you be up for the challenge?
