Well this is embarrassing..🙈🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️
Today, I'm tackling an EMBARRASSING topic: my terrible running skills 🙈🏃♀️.
I'll admit it—I'm slow, short, and always lagging behind when I run with friends. I often find myself waiting for a chance to take a break, feeling like I'm dying inside…
You’d think that being a college gymnast, Ninja, Miss Fitness America, and an athlete would make me good at running. But nope! I remember trying to pass the Presidential and National fitness tests in school. All I needed was an 8-minute mile for the "better award," and I just couldn’t do it. I’d skip lunch to "try again," but always clocked around 10 minutes. Eventually, the teacher said, “I’m just going to give you the award.” I still felt like I hadn’t earned it 😅.
But recently, I realized that the way YOU feel about pull-ups is how I feel about running.
It’s time for a CHANGE. It’s time to rewrite my running story, because conquering this challenge will open doors for me—just like mastering pull-ups will for YOU!
So, what did I do?
👉 I got myself a Running Coach 🏃♀️.
I’m amazed at how running compares to pull-ups—it’s a SKILL that requires breaking it down into pieces!
First, he helped me understand WHAT running looks like (just like I teach you what a pull-up looks like). We broke down every part—from foot position to upper body positioning.
👉 Then, I VIDEOED my CURRENT Run (just like you guys video your pull-ups) to set goals, identify areas to work on, and track progress.
👉 Next, I did tons of DRILLS (not even a lot of running) and practiced connecting each drill with a short run.
I’m loving being a beginner again—asking for corrections, unsure if I’m doing the drills right—because THIS is how you grow!
Being a beginner is powerful and beautiful. It’s great to have something to work on and grow with each week!
I’ll keep you posted on this journey. Happy to report that I’m starting to hate running a bit less already! Maybe if you're working on your pull-ups with the Pull-up Revolution crew, you're "hating it" a little less too? 😉
Stay strong and keep pushing your limits!
Free Hang Challenge
I did a hang everyday for 30 Days and here’s what happened…
⚡️ I showed up for myself for 30 Days in a SIMPLE way... and then it started to become a habit and a routine!
⚡️ Hanging decompresses the spine! I feel like I am standing taller, and I feel less pressure on my spine!
⚡️ Did you know... grip strength is actually a measure of overall health and longevity? Yes, you heard it here first, I'm helping you live longer! After 30 days, my grip strength got WAY better! It was tough at first and my hands hurt, but soon it felt like second nature!
⚡️ I started to bring friends with me to hang and join the journey!
⚡️ I realized that while although hanging was the goal of this challenge, the real win was that I was showing up for myself each day.
Start with habits that give you quick wins and it will change your life.
