Episode 142. What Makes A Run Successful?

What makes a run successful? It's a great question, isn't it? I feel like most runners know what makes a run unsuccessful. And I feel like most runners all too quickly designate a run a total failure without really asking themselves what makes a run successful. That's why I also feel like so many runners miss out on so much success they earned from so many of their runs. I'm hoping that this episode will change that. So, settle in or go for a run or hike and listen to a whole bunch of questions I have for you. And if you can ask yourself these very same questions that I'm asking you I feel like you're going to earn a whole lot more success. I guess that would make this podcast episode a success.

Cheers and thank you for listening,

Coach Bennett
