Your Place Or Mine? What’s Your Plans?

So, what have you all got planned for this year?  15 races, your first marathon, or maybe just run your first race?  It’s always a good idea to set goals ahead of time.  Write them down.  There’s a better chance you’ll meet them if you do that and look at them regularly.  Set long term goals and some medium range ones along the way to the long term.  Finally, get those short term ones down, too.  Those will be the ones that get you to the longer goals.  You can always contact me to help.  Helping you capture those big plans is free.  You’ll need support to meet those goals, anyway.  I’m your guy.

Me?  I’ve got big plans for 2016.  As the best coaching year of my life wound down in 2015 I got certified as a personal trainer.  Now one month into the new year I am getting certified in Functional Movement Screening.  That’ll help me coach my runners or train you all in general more efficiently.  I’ll be able to better customize for you personally what drills or exercises you need to do.  I head to a much warmer climate soon to do that training.  While I’m in Florida I’m running a half marathon to do a check point on my fitness level as well.  I’m almost halfway through my training cycle for the Boston Marathon.  Wow, time flies.

If you really want to run your best, improve, knock your dress or pants size down a notch, or two or three, make this your year!  Commit to it!  Make time for you.  You won’t be able to take care of your children, your wife, parents, family, yourself, whatever as good if you are unhealthy, sick, run down, etc.  You get the idea.  Your energy level grows when you are fit.  Age is no limit, find time.  Stop with those excuses.  I’ve proved the age one wrong, as did my 85 year old mother (Happy Birthday, Mom!  On Saturday, actually).

Do you really want to feel better, look better, run faster, win an age group prize, get big muscles, get healthier in general, whatever you keep saying you should do?  Get in touch with me.  I’m easy to talk to.  You have several ways to get in touch with me.  Email, Facebook, Twitter, text, or call me on the phone (does anyone do that anymore?, just curious).  Email is runyourbestrace@gmail.com.  Twitter is @GlennMWSR and Facebook is Run Your Best Race.  Or shoot over to the Contact Us tab and fill out the form.  I do get those.  Start with that and I’ll give you my cell phone to call or text me if you find that easier to have me consult with you.  (sorry, too many creeps and robots out there to put the phone number out there right here)

Let me help you reach that goal.  2016 is the year of success!  Let’s get there together!
