The Art of Setting Achievable Running Goals The Wrinkled Runner
-
- Running
Ever find yourself setting goals that feel more like wishful thinking than concrete targets? In our latest episode, we unravel the secret to crafting SMART goals that will transform your running game.
We delve into the art of setting objectives that are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-driven, while also embracing the beauty of personal progress.
It's not just about the finish line; it's about crafting a roadmap that respects your unique journey and adapts to life's detours.
The path to running excellence isn't a straight line—it's a track with hurdles and unexpected turns. We dissect the risks of inflexible goal setting, as well and how it could lead you down a path of low self-esteem, questionable ethics, or quitting.
In the spirit of continuous improvement, we stress the value of post-race debriefs and treating each run as an experimental step toward your next personal best.
By fostering an adaptable approach to SMART goals, we aim to keep the passion for running while honing in on on successes.
