Live all you can; it's a mistake not to. It doesn't so much matter what you do in particular, so long as you have your life. If you haven't had that, what have you had? -- Henry James
The schedule of coached runs for the current JumpStart new runner program is included here. In addition to completing the workouts on your training plan, try to attend all the coached sessions. Part of the power of the program is that participants can help and support one another as well as learn from each other. The runs are at a conversational pace, so talking is encouraged. Afterward, stick around and reward yourself with a cup of coffee.
