Get Off Your Ass!
Inspiration if You Want to Run, or Just Get Into Motion. Written by a Former Barstool Ornament Turned Marathoner
Running is not a coaching service I offer any longer, but I share information about it because I love it. I’ve had some glorious, magical, amazing experiences because of running.
Running has taught me more about living well and reasonably than just about anything in my life.
Things you’d think that would be unrelated (like accepting where you are now, taking micro-steps forward, and being ultimately present and not in paralyzed analysis) are all things I, in part, learned by putting foot-to-pavement.
The lines “It’s hard on your knees” or “I only run if something is chasing me” are rehearsed rhetoric inactive people have learned to say when someone tells them they’re a runner.
It’s actually one of the best things, metabolically, you can do for your body, we are born to do it, (Read Born to Run) and it builds healthy joints. (Source)
If you’re dissatisfied with your level of physical activity, running is a great way to change that.

If you feel like you want to become a runner, I compiled a Runner’s Kickstarter Guide back in the day when I still coached runners. It’s for sale. Pay what you can, 5 bucks minimum. ☺️

(For Brand Spankin’ New Runners)
This is the ebook I WISH I HAD when I first started running.
I cover so so so much in those 43 pages— practical stuff like “what to wear,” “what to eat,” “where do I poop?” “How fast do I go?” “Do I use music? Why or why not?” “How do I know where to go in the race?”
I also talk about the mental shift from athlete to non-athlete, the positivity of the running community, and how to overcome resistance when it’s new.
10/10 recommend for brand new runners who have no idea where to start.
It’s pay what you can, five bucks minimum.
For the amount of “research” time this will save you in so many areas, the value is incredible.
