How to Make a Runner Feel Loved

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | running tips

Running is a fun hobby, a stress reliever, and can evoke feelings of accomplishment and pride. But sometimes being a runner can be pretty lonely if your loved ones just don’t “get it”.

I don’t think it’s intentional, but if you’re a runner, have ever felt that you lacked support from your friends and family? Do you wish you had people to talk to about your training or someone waiting for you at the finish line?

I thought it would be helpful to share some tips on how to make a runner feel loved. Not only does this work around Valentine’s Day, but any time of the year where the runner in your life may be feeling a bit of stress from the weekly grind of race training.

If you have a partner, family member, or friend who runs, check out these tips on just a few small ways that you can support them!

By Janelle @ Run With No Regrets | running tips

We are rapidly approaching December and that means we’re wrapping up this year and moving on to the next!

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about what my race plan is for 2018. I’ve already announced that I am signing up for a spring marathon (my second), but beyond that, I’m extremely flexible!

I have really enjoyed creating posts catered to beginners and offering tips to help maximize your experience as a new runner while providing some friendly reminders to the more experienced runners!

If you’re a new runner, this may be your first time running in high temperatures. I can tell you that no matter how long you’ve been a runner, it is always an adjustment to transition to summer running!

But if you’re training for a race, you can’t let a little thing like hot weather stop you!

For this month’s Running 101, I’m going to share some of my greatest tips for conquering summer running. Yes, it’s challenging and sometimes absolutely miserable but you can do it – without resorting to the treadmill every day!

I’ve previously shared the following Running 101 topics:
