It’s time for our final task together.
You ready?
Let’s dive in.
Maybe you had success with the shuffle yesterday.
Maybe you found it easier than you expected OR maybe you didn’t quite make the full ten minutes. Maybe you still felt a little too scared to start. That’s OK. Wherever you are, this is your starting point.
So, today, I want you to take a minute to think about what your running goals are.
And specifically, I want you to think about what action you can take now to get you one step closer to that goal.
Ask yourself:
On a scale of “I’ve just done my first shuffle (ever or in while)” to “I am a running goddess. I can outrun a cheetah while simultaneously answering work emails and making a roast lunch for my entire extended family”, where am I in achieving my goal?
Here’s a visual representation of that scale:
1. I’ve just done my shuffle
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10. Running GODDESS / Queen of all fast moving beasts (add your goal here!)
Now ask yourself:
What small action could you take to get one level up on that scale?
Just one level up. Not four levels, not seven levels.
Just one.
That little action might be joining us inside Run with Turia (your early bird discount ends tonight!).
It might be continuing to set out your running clothes the night before, it could be making a time with your partner or a friend to care for the kids or buying takeaway or ready made pasta one night per week to give you more time for running.
Now, we’re all gonna start at different places on this scale, so just pick where you’re at today and write down what small action you’re going to take to get one level up.
These small things, these one level up actions are important.
They’ll get you where you want to go.
That’s it, my friend!
Easy, huh?
I am alllll about making slow, steady and sustainable changes.
See, I think we have a tendency to adopt an “all or nothing” mindset when we start something new.
And what I don’t want you to do is go too hard, too fast and either get injured, or burn out and lose all motivation in three weeks.
I want this to be something you keep at!
If you decide to join me inside Run with Turia, we’ll step you slowly and steadily through the next nine weeks.
It’s a flexible, and incredibly DOABLE program that I designed for Mums (but you don’t need to have kids to join. We have lots of women without kids running with us).
I’ve poured my entire being into this program.
Everything that helped me get from a hospital bed to an Ironman finish line, and all the added wisdom I learnt returning to running after having my kids.
It’s the best place on the Internet.
And the doors are open now.
You can get all the info (including access to our early bird discount) right here.
(Remember, the early bird discount ends TONIGHT!).
We have three distances you can choose from: A 5km program for beginners, all the way through to 10km and 21km distances.
Not only will this program build your fitness and confidence slowly, it’s also gonna give you the support and accountability you need to make these changes stick.
And, of course, when you join, you also get lifetime access to our private Facebook group. You might have had a little taste of that last week, but our Run with Turia group is honestly my favourite place on the Internet. Inside, you’ll meet a community of amazing women to lift you up (and keep you accountable). No, not one of those Facebook groups where you ask a question only to get zero replies (and MAYBE a like or two). A REAL community, where everyone shares their struggles, their wins, and their vulnerabilities freely so that they can all grow together.
Anyway, I’ve talked enough about Run now. I’m clearly very passionate about it 😂😂
But if you have questions, shoot me a note and let me know.
I won’t open enrolments again until October, so if you’re thinking about joining, now is the time.
Here’s all the details.
Right, one last time, let me tell you how proud I am of you for taking on this challenge.
I hope you’ve gotten some value out of the tips I’ve shared, and I hope the shuffle has empowered you to realise that you, my friend, can truly do anything.
Sending you all my love.
Here’s to you, you wonderful shuffling queen!
I’m so proud of you,
Turia x
