    NYAR Announcement: Taking a Break

    The Not Your Average Runner Podcast is going on a hiatus! After 320 episodes and showing up at least once a week since January 2018, I am in need of rest and rejuvenation to come back even stronger in the new year.
     
    It’s going to be weird not being in your ears every week, and I’ll miss you, but I promise, the time is going to fly by and I’ll be back before you know it.
     
    In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled for some fun courses and races kicking off very soon, and make sure you’re in our official Not Your Average Runner Facebook community because I’ll still be in there doing Facebook Lives and pop-up coaching!

    Fat Joy: A Power Source for Positive Change with Sophia Apostol

    Are you filled with rage as you recognize how your fat body is constantly being oppressed? Have you always been told you’re both too much and not enough at the same time? Do you feel like you’re walking through the world ready to explode as you begin unlearning the oppressive conditioning you’ve experienced?
     
    This week, I’m here with body liberation coach Sophia Apostol. Sophia is the creator of the Fat Joy podcast and she's on a mission to help her clients rewrite the messaging that has told them they are unworthy. Sophia is walking us through the power of coupling rage and joy together, and how she’s using rage as rocket fuel for anti-oppressive learning.

    Treadmill Running Tips

    Opinions on running on the treadmill truly run the gamut. Some call it the “dreadmill,” some will use it if there’s no other option, and some only feel comfortable and confident running indoors on a treadmill. Whichever camp you currently fall into, the treadmill is a piece of equipment that’s totally worth learning to master, and I’m showing you how.
     
    Join me this week to learn how to master the basics of running on a treadmill. I’m covering everything you need to know, from setup and safety concerns to injury prevention tips. Hear my answers to the most frequently asked questions I receive about running on the treadmill, and how adding treadmill skills to your toolbox can make the difference between sticking with your plan and quitting on yourself.

I’m showing you how to drop these doubts and try on something more useful instead.
     
    Tune in this week to explore the difference between healthy doubt and doubt that stops you from going after the things you really want. I’m showing you how to spot doubt that isn’t serving you, and giving you a new way to respond to the doubt that is holding you back.
