At the gym the other day, someone asked me: โGot any advice for a fat guy who wants to start runningโฆ asking for a friend?โ ๐ That sparked a convo about something I always teach runnersโwhether youโre training for your first 5K or your first 100-miler: ๐ Start with walking. ๐ Build from there. ๐ Use the Walk/Run Gradient. In this episode, Iโm breaking down my favorite strategy for building endurance without wrecking your body in the process. Weโre talking about: Why walking workouts absolutely count What people get wrong about โtime on feetโ How to use the walk/run gradient to level up safely Why this applies to every distance, from 5K to 200M This is the foundation I use with clients inside my She Runs Ultras coaching membershipโand honestly? It works at every level. ๐ Visual learner? Check out the gradient graphic on Instagram or Facebook [@sherunsultras] ๐ฌ And make sure youโre on my email list for a new membership option launching soon! Itโs coaching support without the 1:1 price tagโand itโs coming at the end of the month! โญ๏ธ GET THE FREE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT ๐๏ธ SHOP THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS STORE โก๏ธ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP ๐ธ FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM ๐ IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM
