Do you have the itch to run a race but have no idea where to start or what to do to prepare? Don't think you even can run a race...but are a little curious if maybe, possibly, one day you could?? Beverly Asante joins me today and dishes on all the things you can do to prepare for and successfully run a race! Whether you're thinking 5k or a half marathon, this is the episode for you! Beverly is a former competitive high school and university athlete turned couch potato, who is now back on track as a half marathon runner. As a Certified Distance Running Coach and Certified Nutrition Coach, Beverly has walked (or rather: run!) the talk. She has even written a book entitle "Ace the Half" that has  everything you need to know to successfully run a half marathon with ease. Beverly dishes on all the reasons why it's great to run and helps give ways to combat all the obstacles (aka excuses) we put up to keep us from running! Even if you've been injured, or just winced at the word "run", listen in for some hidden gems - tips to live a healthier lifestyle no matter what your running status!
