You're 100% right Coach B!!

Sometimes I just get the urge to run as fast as I can (sometimes it's because you're telling me to find my best or celebration pace) and I recapture the feeling of being that 7 year old girl who wanted to just run and run.

Thank you 😁

I loved this one! I've recently starting "playing with running" and allowing myself to just let go of rules/numbers. I can't believe how much pure joy and fun it brings me. I'm in my thirties, and this is probably the only thing that makes me feel like a kid again (in the best way possible).

Thank you for inspiring me through your running, writing, and guided runs!

Hi Coach, for me it was roughly last summer, but it was /exactly/ here :- Google Earth Link

I was taking my friends dog for a walk and decided to race him up and down the huge dip in the park. The dog won, easily, but hey it was fun! 👍🏃‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️

I love this! My daughter tells me that the sports coaches at her school often make people run as a punishment, so everyone sees running as a bad thing to avoid - really sad. I hope those kids are able to find joy in running soon

Thank you! I often run with my 8 year old daughter on our way to school when we’re not even late just because she wants to run and turn it into a game. I’ll see those “school runs” in a different way now..
