Stay Focused
Keep up your consistency
You are all doing so well, you are over half way and the end goal is in sight.
For those of you doing the "Return" programme, your runs are getting longer and we know they may be a bit scary, remind yourself of what you have done to be successful up to this point in time.
Allow yourself to trust your ability and work within levels that make you successful.
You are all doing so well, keep it up as we work through to the end.

This week's quick tip:
'Keep the programme on the fridge. Tick off each day as you achieve. Be proud to tell people.'

Education
How do you measure yourself?
The way we measure ourselves can have a massive influence on the way we perform. A lot of people create unrealistic measurements that lead them to feeling unsuccessful which often leads to them stopping. For this week's education we share an audio podcast that Coach Bevan put together about this topic.
The show runs for around 60mins, the key content starts around 5mins into the show"
Inspiration
This week we look at how to breathe whilst running, you'd be surprised at how often we get asked this question! This video below gives some good tips and advice so you can practice on your next run.
