3 Coaching Tips to Reboot Your Running Motivation (Without Burning Out)

Feeling that September pull to reset your running routine or set some new goals? You're not imagining it.

This week, Coach Steph and Anya break down the psychology of the "fresh start effect" and why this time of year makes us all feel more motivated. Steph shares three practical coaching tips you can use to turn that motivation into a routine that actually survives winter: from setting realistic goals, to preparing for the winter season ahead, and carrying summer's mindset forward.

What You'll Learn:

🧠 The psychology behind why September feels so motivating

🎯 How to set realistic goals based on where you are now, not where you wish you were

❄️ Why winter training gets harder, not easier, and how to prepare for it

💪 How to lose the all-or-nothing mindset and adjust your plan instead of abandoning it

🧥 Simple ways to prepare mentally and physically before conditions toughen up

☀️ Why carrying your summer running joy into autumn helps you stick with it
