Hello Everyone. I know that Christmas and the Holidays are upon us.. but now is the time for us to manage next years races or walks and to entertain a goal that we would like to accomphlish. A 5K, A triathlon, a Marathon.. whatever it is that your body and mind accept. Now is the time to take a few days off of regular training and look at the upcoming schedules of the New Year's offerings.
I hope everyone's Holidays are full of family and love, and everyone's addiction to getting healthy continues into the New Year.
We have such a variety of people that come into the R3 Store. It is a great reminder of what a healthy lifestyle can offer: lifelong friends that choose to finish a 5K, Sisters that walk for a cause, parents that drive their children to excel in running and sports, brothers from around the world running the same race, and then there is you...you with your own campaign and compelling passion not to win every race, not to win any race, but to just improve your last time.
To feel that last push of energy and to know that you did that, in that moment of time, that you pushed yourself to run just a little bit harder, to give just a little bit more, to desire something and drive to receive it.
It will be a great year ahead, whether the marathon is on the agenda or those first two miles.
I challenge everyone.. to find at least one person you know, just one...from the office, from your daycare, a family member, a close friend, a person you just met... to encourage them to take a walk, if they run, to finish a race. This race can be with you on a training run or organized race. Make it an event, make it an experience to remember. Some examples of fun things to do to get people motivated, hmm...that is easy.. (1)Dress up for the walk, I mean really dress up in your favorite funny, decorative gear and watch the heads turn,, time will go by so fast and your belly will hurt from laughing more than your legs.. (2)Walk or run to a place, once completed with your run, have a drink, have a healthy snack, have a coffee, run with the stroller to your babysitters and keep running after you drop the kids off. (3)Have an established run or race on the calendar (i.e. www.active.com or www.r3running.com are good websites. A suggestion is to have one more than 4 months away. Get as many people that you know to run or participate, either by support or watching and encouraging or just walking the event. Make shirts for your cause and get busy!!(4)Find a cause and have a reason. This is really the easiest one.
Lastly, be prepared, be safe and have fun.
