Every runner starts somewhere, and for me, it started with just five minutes around the block.

In this episode, I’m sharing the story of how I went from a stressed-out new physician to crossing the finish line of my very first 5K. Whether you’re brand new to running or just getting back into it, you’ll hear the simple, sustainable steps that helped me build consistency, confidence, and joy in running.

You’ll learn:

• How to find your “why” so you stay motivated

• Why starting small is the smartest way to make progress

• How to pick a goal race that excites you

• The value of committing to your workouts, even when life is busy

• Where a coach can help you identify blind spots to avoid common mistakes

If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect time” to start running, this is your sign to take that first step.

Listen now and learn how to go from five minutes to your first finish line!
