186: How to Start Running From Zero (Beginner Runner's Plan) | Jeff Cunningham

186: How to Start Running From Zero (Beginner Runner's Plan) | Jeff Cunningham

In this episode, I sit down with my running coach and host of the Consistently Good Podcast, Jeff Cunningham, to simplify running for beginners. We break down how to build an aerobic base, run easy without obsessing over Zone 2, introduce fartlek and speed workouts, warm up properly, combine running with strength training, and fuel for performance.


The goal is simple: stop overcomplicating the process, start where you are, and build through consistency.
