You can\u2019t have too many running friends, and running with them makes every mile a whole new and different experience. You\u2019ll make friends for life, and during all those miles, you\u2019ll discuss every comceivable topic, solve the world\u2019s probems and each others. You\u2019ll run more because you want to hang out with your friends, and a bad run will always become a much better run when you have friends by your side. While belonging to a running group is helpful to experienced runners, it\u2019s exponentially more beneficial to new runners, beginner runners who need motivation and support, but beginner runners often feel intimidated, worrying that they won\u2019t be welcome, won\u2019t be able to keep up, or won\u2019t be able to run far enough, all valid concerns. In this podcast, I address questions submitted by the beginner runners in my Mojo for Running Coaching Program regarding those exact concerns and many more. I hope that after giving this podcast a listen, you\u2019ll feel like you\u2019re ready to find a club and become involved. Subscribe with Stitcher Radio Mojo for Running.
