The Planted Runner

Goals, in running and in life, are necessary for improvement, but sometimes your big goals can take away the joy of the journey.

Thankfully, there are plenty of ways, backed by research, that we can achieve our dream goals without sacrificing our enjoyment of the present moment.

Today’s conversation is with the incomparable Lauren Fleshman, a former pro runner and author of the groundbreaking bestseller Good for a Girl.  This is Lauren’s second time on the show and our talk today is perhaps even better than the first.

She’s celebrating the 10th anniversary edition of her Believe Training Journal which is designed to be a simple and effective way of getting to know yourself as a runner and can be a road map to achieving your goals.

We go over:

• How a few minutes of pen to paper can profoundly shape your training
• How goals can shift as you age, and
• How you can inspire kids and yourself to be runners for life

Lauren has a unique yet relatable perspective on how running affects us throughout our lives that I know you will enjoy.
