Great way to start running

I went from no running at all to 30 minutes straight thanks to this podcast. That was five years ago and I’m still running regularly. My husband did the same. I recommend this to anyone who wants to start running, no matter if they haven’t run in years or ever.

Cumpre o que se espera

Podcast que motiva o corredor a dar o próximo passo, sempre com calma mas com perseverança. Sem necessidade de programas específicos, este podcast o animará a correr. Em inglês, mas comandos de simples compreensão.

Loved it

Just finished week 7, I love this podcast. Never thought I could run more than a minute. So thankful for the team that helped put this together. Awesome podcast and highly recommend if you want to get into running.
