Step by Step: Overcoming Running Hurdles

The Wrinkled Runner

Hey Running Friends!
Struggling to lace up those running shoes with consistency? The internal and external barriers we may have need to be identified, and then we can come up with strategies to overcome them. For older runners, time scarcity, waning motivation, and the ever-present fatigue can hold us back.
Sometimes we don't know why we are having a hard time getting out there, and you just need someone to prompt you to figure it out. Check out the resource section for a quiz you can take which will show you what may be a barrier.
