IMPACTful THOUGHTS:

(IMPACT is my chosen word for 2025 - what was yours?)

Hello Reader,

A friend of mine was kind enough to let me know he signed up for the 7 Days of Mobility, but wished he had access to the 5 exercises I described in my previous email.

He was 100% right!

Today, I had fun at the local track making these videos and I must say - THEY ARE NOT EASY. Start slow, and see how you feel.

I value your feedback always - if you have any questions or if there is something that you would like to see/have access to, please let me know!

Keep moving forward my friends, one step at a time.

Jumpstartrunning Presents: In The Long Run IMPACTful THOUGHTS: (IMPACT is my chosen word for 2025 - what was yours?) Hello Reader, Yep, it's that time of year. If you wake up already feeling behind, or can’t even remember Thanksgiving (shoutout to all you Turkey Trotters!), you’re not alone. I’m out in Arizona until December 21, and even my packing needed a strategy. My movement plan before I left? Grace, space, and (no) pace. One day, I said I’d run “later” and… didn’t. Instead of beating...

Can You Be Stressed AND Thankful?

Jumpstartrunning Presents: In The Long Run IMPACTful THOUGHTS: (IMPACT is my chosen word for 2025 - what was yours?) Hello Reader, I'm not sure about you, but lately I've had moments where I've felt like this: Luckily, physical activity is one of the best ways to offload stress. Not just running, but even a ten minute walk can change your physiology. Unfortunately, sometimes all of the stress gets "stuck" in our body, restricts our mobility and impairs running. This can lead to even more...

Jumpstartrunning Presents: In The Long Run IMPACTful THOUGHTS: (IMPACT is my chosen word for 2025 - what was yours?) Hello Reader, Anytime I start with a new client, I ask about their goals. If they are training for a race, I want to know if they are seeking completion, performance, or a combination of the two. Each runner has a different "WHY" behind their intention of signing up for a challenge like the marathon. The more I understand their "why", it helps us both. I had a virtual call with...
