In this episode of the Running Explained podcast, I had the pleasure of chatting with Matt Chittim, coach and host of The Rambling Runner Podcast, about the incredible potential that runners have, no matter when they start. Matt and I dive into how age doesn't have to limit your running goals and why consistent training—what we call "training age"—is so crucial to reaching your full potential. We also get real about the fact that progress in running isn't always linear; there will be plateaus and challenges along the way. But as Matt reminds us, believing in your abilities and giving yourself the chance to see what you're truly capable of is key to unlocking that potential. If you've ever wondered how much faster you might be able to get as an adult runner (especially if you STARTED running as an adult), this episode is for you!
