Training without a goal

THE LESSON
Without some kind of goal you may lose both motivation and fitness.
THE TEACHER
Amanda Woodrow – athletics coach and personal trainer with We Run.
It’s easy for all of us to plod along with our training, week after week, without a firm goal to guide and motivate us. The months fly by and running may feel very social and easy on the body, but without a goal it’s easy to lose your mojo as well as your running fitness.
Put a goal in your calendar – a race, a parkrun, a time-trial – and suddenly you’ll find the motivation to get up, get out and get faster.
