Here are\xa0SOME\xa0steps we came up with to achieving your running goals:

\n
1. Set the goal - don't worry about the myths that hold you back or what other people say
\n
2. Identify the obstacles that might get in your way - plan how you will overcome them
\n
3. Break the goal into smaller, more realistic goals
\n
4. Do something everyday that get you closer to that goal
\n
5. Adapt the plan as necessary
\n
6. Celebrate along the way
