Welcome to the first episode of 2025: A New Beginning! 🎉

It’s been over a year since I last ran consistently, with the Lake Front Marathon in 2023 marking my final real race. Life, work, and family have kept me busy—and as a bigger guy, staying on track with running has been an uphill battle.

But 2025 is a fresh start! In this episode, I share my journey of getting back into running and tackle the challenges of balancing a busy schedule, staying consistent, and building new habits. Whether you’re just starting out or trying to get back on track, this episode is for you.

👟 Here’s what we cover today:
✔️ The challenges of restarting your running journey after a long break.
✔️ Strategies for staying committed, even with a packed schedule.
✔️ Practical tips to make 2025 your year of running success (even if it’s just a mile a day!).

Hit play, lace up your running shoes, and join me in making 2025 a year of progress and perseverance. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share to inspire someone else to take their first stride!
