About this episode
If you want to maintain or even improve your running fitness all year round, you’re either going to make friends with the treadmill or you’ll have to find a way to make peace with the cold and dark this fall and winter. I’ll show you how. On today’s show, we are going to explore how you can get ready for fall and winter running. You’ll learn: Tips to stay motivated and run safely in the dark Exactly how to dress in any kind of weather for any kind of run, and I’ll share my personal experience with a condition that many runners face this time of year, especially women. Even if you’re like me, a die-hard summer lover, you’ll be completely prepared for any condition Mother Nature can throw at you. I also want to remind you if you’ve still got a race coming up this fall, there’s still time to make sure your mind is as strong as your legs. My Find Your Flow State audio series will turn your race anxiety into calm confidence. After all, the strongest muscle in the body is your mind.

I can’t wait for the next episode!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Perfect timing 😊 “I am a listener from Asia and I stumbled upon your podcast a year ago. I have been running for a few years now but just recently shifted to a plant based diet. I am so happy I found this podcast. It really helped me a lot and up to now, I’m still learning every episode. It has been tough having this lifestyle, especially where I am from where the resources are very meager. Thank you so much and I always look forward to weekly episodes. Keep it up, I hope you know how much help and inspiration you are able to give 💯” ammmilo ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Informative and fun “I really enjoy listening to this podcast. It’s interesting and informative.
