What age were you when you first started running?

I'm guessing you were over 18 - and likely over 30, 40 or even 50. And unfortunately, as you may have well experienced, there's something so much harder about starting when you're older.

So many more obstacles, worries, and challenges that your running peers who started earlier in life never had to deal with. 

In today's episode, Coach Jeff is going to dig deep into many of these reasons and share with you some tips on how to make some of them a little easier or less challenging.

You'll learn…

• The science behind why it's more difficult to stay healthy
• The big physiological disadvantage you face (and how to catch up)
• And how our approach to goals as adult runners puts us at a disadvantage

Having been someone who took up running very early in life and now someone who coaches almost exclusively people who didn't, Coach Jeff has a lot of unique perspectives and anecdotes he's going to share with you that really make some of these points hit home.

If you started running later in life, you're really going to love this episode.
