definitely not what i usually post about, but i feel like i've seen comments requesting this for years. so here we are. tips on running from ur local track & cross country team mom. ↓↓↓

today's video is all about how to get into running and become a lifelong runner. we're starting with the most basic advice for beginner runners & walkers, including essential supplies and how to choose a running route and avoid death. jk you won't die i promise. i think the most important part though is the section on staying motivated and committing to making exercise and health a lifelong habit. this is different from my usual content, but as a long distance athlete who strongly believes in the power of improvement, i just wanted to share this for anyone out there who wants to work on themselves and needs encouragement. :)

and just to clarify - i do not run D1 at UCLA. i was recruited by several D3 schools, but i prioritized my academics with my college choice. i am NOT fast nor committed enough to this sport to run NCAA D1 lol.

i've loved this line for years. i have a wide toe-area so i size up and it's really comfy :)
btw get older shoe models second hand if you're on a budget, just make sure the treads look to be in decent condition
