Start a Running Routine: My 10 Year Running Story & Training Schedule as Yoga Teacher
Manage episode 438461396 series 3563579
I know, I can’t believe I’ve made an episode on running! The thing I was running from most was running. I thought I’d convert to the yoga world and never ever look back to running. But I was wrong, and for good reason. I have to tell you that running changed my life when I wasn’t able to breathe as a super asthmatic kid. The result was a decade of dedication to the sport.
In this episode, I'm diving into all things running. We are in a running boom as a society… I'll be sharing my own journey with running—how I’ve made it work alongside yoga. Plus, I'll tell you all about my recent running adventure in Costa Rica and why having direction and dedication is key.
I'll also be giving some super practical tips on how to start a running routine—like fueling your body, thinking of yourself like an athlete, running on softer ground, and the importance of stretching.
