In The Long Run

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.

I am committed to keep showing up to be a light, offer compassion, and a slight bit of sassiness. When the world feels out of control, I like to return to what is in our control: you caring for you. Reminding us that small habits help us stay human, along with movement, mindset, and running. A short walk. A text to a friend. A simple meal. An old sitcom...

Drumroll please...here's my 2026 word

In The Long Run Thoughts and BELIEFS: (BELIEF is my chosen word for 2026 - what is yours?) Hello Reader, It's that time again: I love choosing a word for the New Year because it's free, there's no pressure/deadline (well, before December 31st), and it's NOT a resolution!

Jumpstartrunning Presents: In The Long Run IMPACTful THOUGHTS: (IMPACT was my chosen word for 2025 - what was yours?) Hello Reader, A few months ago, I attended a women’s gathering in Boulder where someone casually mentioned the Chinese zodiac. Apparently, 2025 is the Year of the Snake, and 2026 is the Year of the Horse. Many of the women nodded knowingly — I was waiting for further context, but no one elaborated.
