    10: How to Make Running Goals (and Actually Stick to Them)

    It’s peak goal-setting season. In this episode, I talk through how to make running goals that actually fit your life and how to stick with them long after the New Year motivation fades. We cover: Where distance goals come from (and why it’s worth being honest about that) What different distances really involve in terms of time and training Why time goals can be tricky for beginner runners Why consistency and time on feet might be the most powerful goals of all How to stay motivated, avoid injury, and turn motivation into habit This isn’t about telling you what goal you should have. It’s about helping you choose goals that serve you, so you finish the year still running, still showing up, and still enjoying it.

    01: Slow and Steady with Jeki Kasanga

    In our first episode of Run Curious, I’m joined by my good friend Jeki Kasanga , a self-proclaimed “casual runner” who only started taking running seriously a few months ago and then, ironically, ran his first marathon with barely any notice. He survived the experience…and somehow still loves running. We get into how he started, the classic beginner mistakes, discovering zone 2 training, the role running plays in mental health, and why “slow and steady” still wins... even when you impulsively sign up for 42.2 km. Perfect for beginners, restarters, and anyone building consistency one run at a time. LUrlkpoowF3iDfXxdolF
