    This is SO helpful. I feel like so many run plans you find online start with a ton of running and don't provide enough context and flexibility. This feels so doable and yet like it would get you ready for a half. Awesome.

    Holly I can’t thank you enough for this. So well structured and aptly delivered. I appreciate how you’ve covered the mental as well as the physical challenges of running. I’ll be back to thank you again when I run my first half marathon. It is 4 months away and I was feeling a little anxious about it but I know I can do and I want to prove it to myself. Thank you

    Yup I will definitely have to come back to watch again and write things down. Tons of great information. I used to think I was drinking enough until I figured out my headaches and some other symptoms were because I was dehydrated. Then I installed an app to remind myself to drink and wow was I way off in how much I thought I was drinking to how much I actually need to drink.
