Why You Keep Ghosting Your Running Goals

Set running goals only to abandon them weeks later? This episode of Your Running Coach by GMacSpurr will help you discover how to stay on track and keep the promises you make to yourself

Setting running goals is easy – what’s hard is sticking with them. Whether you’ve started training, promised yourself a race time, or just want to run regularly, it’s all too common to drift off course.

If you’ve ever felt motivated but somewhere along the line lost momentum, this one’s for you.
