In college, she continued running and joined a soccer team despite having little prior experience. She always had the goal of running a half marathon but kept postponing it. However, after encountering a 50-mile runner during a vacation, she decided to sign up for a half marathon and fell in love with running during her training. Her goal now is to do one race per month, with a focus on half marathons before eventually attempting a marathon.Anna emphasized the importance of encouraging others during difficult parts of a race, sharing how cheering for fellow runners gave her a second wind during her half marathon. She suggested that focusing on encouraging others can help shift your mindset away from the difficulty of the race and lead to a more positive experience.Anna shared valuable advice for new runners, emphasizing the importance of making running fit into your routine and finding a running style that works for you. She also highlighted the significance of taking care of oneself and being a good steward of one's body. She expressed gratitude for the opportunity to volunteer at races and praised the ease of volunteering at events.Anna LangeRaces MentionedAzalea Trail RunWe Run This Beach Half MarathonTurkey TrotBattlefield BlitzMississippi Gulf Coast Half MarathonDouble Bridge RunShout OutsFleet FeetAnchored MovementChrissy SchneiderKristen RatherSupport the showFor more details on Run Your Story happenings, visit https://runyourstory.com/For web development or tech services, visit https://gaillardts.com/Go Run Your Story and take a piece of this story with you!
