Summary
This episode answers the #1 question runners have asked over the last week: 'now that my spring race is canceled, what do I do now?'
You'll hear from Jen Miller, author of Running: A Love Story and the person behind the New York Times weekly running newsletter. She had a marathon and a 50k on her plate this spring but both races are canceled. Jason and Jen discuss what she can do now and her unique circumstances that take priority over running.
Team Strength Running - our virtual team - is open indefinitely to help you stay connected to the running community. This is our group coaching program where you get a coach, a library of training plans, strength and core routines, ongoing education with a new expert interview every week, and the support and camaraderie of having a network of other runners just like you. It’s a team, after all!
If you’d like to see more details and potentially join, go to https://strengthrunning.com/join-the-team/ to learn more.
A virtual race series that I’ve joined is The Rambling Runner series. You can find more info at https://www.theramblingrunner.com/virtualraceseries or you can simply search for the rambling runner club on Strava and join from there. It’s entirely free and this is one of the best opportunities to stay connected in the coming months.
