Become a Runner Class Day 10: Diagnostic Test – BRV 045

By Debbie Voiles

Become a Runner Class: Evaluation and ImplementationThis is it! You’ve been learning about what to do for nine days. Think of this as graduation day, the day you get the last, but most critical, piece of the puzzle. Today, you find out exactly what you should do, and I mean you, personally, should do on Day 1 of your running journey. Today, is your diagnostic run.

In this podcast, I explain what to do to find out how far you should run during each running segment of your walk to run mile, which is the distance you should start with. 

I also explain how to progress from there, the three variables, and the details regarding the decisions you’ll be making in deciding what to change and when. 

I’m excited for you because this is, of all the secrets I’ve imparted, perhaps the most crucial one, because if you try to start your running training with too much running, you’ll likely never succeed.

MFR 04: High School Cross Country Runners

By Debbie Voiles

In this episode, I introduce you to three high school cross country runners. This episode was originally an article printed in Florida Running & Triathlon Magazine. I write an article for each issue, and each one features several runners’ experiences as they tackle a new distance or type of race.

These three are just finishing up their first high school x-country season, and it was super fun to chat with them and hear their enthusiasm. One, Chelsie Bedingfield, is a senior; so, this season was her first and last, but as you’ll hear, the experience was one she’ll never forget.
