How to Start Running (And Enjoy It)

Running can and should be fun


Imagine finding a new sense of adventure, making new friends, and celebrating accomplishments you never thought possible. What if running more and more felt easy, instead of miserable? What if running became no big deal and even something you looked forward to? And, what if, just three months from now, you could run three miles?


As a runner of over twenty years (and a deep-diving nerd on the subject), author Sarah Austin Casson shares her best tricks and tips for getting started and actually enjoying yourself. She brings practical, proven methods for a training experience that feels rewarding instead of punishing.


Casson knows that many of us are used to thinking of running as punishment, but it doesn't have to be that way. With this book, she'll hold your hand as you build your running capabilities over time. She'll guide you through a three-month run-walk program that builds you up to running 30 minutes comfortably.


If you've ever been curious about running or want to get back into moving your body in an enjoyable way, this book is for you!
