Marrying the process – what would you still do if you knew you would fail?

OperationMove · January 5, 2022 · Leave a Comment

We often hear about loving the process, or setting process based goals or just being about the process, but what does it really even mean?

You’ll often hear people talking about the process, but it can get a bit like jargon after awhile. Like, how do you tell the difference between the tempo run which is about the process and the tempo run which is about finally nailing that half marathon PB? They can look a lot alike. So, that is our deep dive for today!

Podcast: Episode 125 – “Hey Mama, you seem tired.”

OperationMove · April 24, 2020 · Leave a Comment

 

Things your kids say to you as your escaping, I mean leaving the house to go into the back office

  I think everyone is feeling this right now! So just in case you needed it, this is your reminder that it is okay to drop a few balls, let a few things slide and just have a nap. Frankly it’s a miracle that it has taken them 4 or 5 weeks to work out that I’m tired/cranky. I must be some kind of a magician. I also talk a bit about my training week and how to prioritise self care, particularly the self care that you don’t like to do.  

Would you like your question answered?

Podcast: Episode 117 – Worthy of the Mountain – Kirsten and the 100km Alpine Challenge

OperationMove · December 20, 2019 · Leave a Comment

Today, I’m talking to Kirsten about her 100km Alpine Challenge

 

You can follow Kirsten at @shelovestorun and she’s also our head coach over at Run Club, where she also writes custom programs. One of the big questions that came for Kirsten after her first unsupported 100km run was how she managed her mindset and her mental headspace through such a long event, with a whole heap of challenges and battling a whole lot of fatigue. So this is the main area that we dive into today.

Podcast – Episode 116: How To Break Through Plateaus

OperationMove · December 7, 2019 · Leave a Comment

 

 

This week from podcast land . . .

At the end of the year, it’s natural to reflect on what went really well, and what didn’t work so well and it’s a great time to take a step back and examine what you want to continue doing because it’s working really well and what you’d like to work on more. An important part of that process is:

  • Creating a context for your improvement: running can be really black and white in terms of outcomes, but not all improvements can be measured in a time or a PB
  • Understanding that sometimes you don’t need to change anything, you just need to keep going
  • Creating a balance between developing work capacity and specific training
  • How to zone in on things that might be blocking your progress: like over-training or under-recovering

 

Coming Up . . .

Do you want 2020 to be the year you learn to run, our program starts on the 6th January and you can register here. Up until the 15th December you can also get 25% off with the code early. Don’t miss out!

I talk about things like: are you better off getting as much sleep, or following a consistent schedule? Should you take that nap? How do you set up routines to put yourself on auto-pilot? Is some sleep more valuable than other sleep? And is being a night owl a real thing? Stay up to date on:

Meet Tiffany!

OperationMove · February 25, 2019 · Leave a Comment

Tiffany completed Learn to Run in 2017 and has been a member of Run Club and the Operation Move Community since then. Tiffany originally shared her story in Run Club and it is reprinted here with her permission.

Sooo it is my turn to let you know about my running journey. I don’t think it is as inspirational as others but here goes….

I have always loved playing sport since I was young. I played state basketball and touch football, lifesaving and swimming. I did well at athletics mainly due to sprinting and jumping events. However any distance over 400m and cross country I hated so never classified myself as a runner but a sprinter. I have continued to play basketball, swim and go to the gym in my adult years but always hated going for a run!

In January of 2017 the Learn to Run program came up on my Facebook feed so I joined and loved my group! I then joined this awesome Run Club group after I finished. I always thought a 10 km run was my absolute limit, however I watched a friend of mine who had lost 30kg and survived breast cancer complete the Gold Coast marathon in under 4 hours in 2017. I was so inspired that I decided that I would do the GC half in 2018.

I love running as it makes me a nicer person, the post run feeling is like no other!! This group has been amazing and is teaching me that it is your own run, and it is amazing no matter how long it takes you to get there (which is hard for my competitive nature). I am thinking of doing Melbourne half in October and would love to do Great Ocean Road one year also. My aim is for two maybe 3 halfs a year but a marathon is not a goal for this sprinter…

I have to say thanks to Zoey and Kirsten! You both inspire me and thanks for creating an amazing supportive group of women!!!
