Episode Notes

You're chasing that breakthrough PR, but found yourself either stuck, plateaued or moving backwards.

 In this episode, Coach Sara breaks down the three non-negotiables that powered her incredible journey from a 2:04 half-marathon runner to a 1:28 powerhouse. We reveal the exact strategies behind:

Unwavering Consistency: Why showing up consistently is more critical than any single workout.

Training for Different Distances: How adding 5K speed and marathon endurance was the secret weapon for 13.1 miles.

The Coaching Edge: The specific value of mentorship in restructuring your plan and mindset.

If you want a clear roadmap for serious speed gains and sustained progress, this is the episode that delivers.
