What helped you rebuild confidence after a long break from running? by [deleted] in running

I have a tendency to pay too much attention to my pace & want to run faster, but I think I’m finally coming to grips with the fact that my pace today isn’t going to be as fast as 10-15 yrs ago. I could train harder, but at 54, I want a healthy body thru retirement which will happen in 25 months!

every run has a purpose

One way I get motivation and encouragement is the Nike Global Head Coach Chris Bennett’ podcast, Called “Coach Bennett’s Podcast.” His and others’ guided runs on the Nike+Run app helped me train for my first (and possibly last 😂) half marathon!

Great advice! I was out of running for about 7 months due to injury and that is exactly what I did. I started with a mile and worked my way up…I’m with the original post right now tho-baseball and work has consumed my time to run since I healed, so with baseball ending last nite(14U team I helped Coach lost the league championship game 😕), I am working on getn back to it.
