Welcome to Day 1 of the Running Reignited Challenge—I’m so glad you’re here. 🙌
You’re stepping into a new season of running—one that honors your body, your energy, and your power as a woman over 40.
Because let’s be honest…
If you’ve noticed running feels harder lately—more fatigue, more aches, more stubborn weight or slower paces—you’re not imagining things.
There’s a real reason behind the shift, and it starts with your hormones.
Perimenopause and menopause aren’t just about hot flashes and missed periods.
They affect every system in your body—especially your ability to recover, adapt, and improve with training.
But here’s the good news:
You have so much more power than you’ve been told.
And this week, I’m going to show you how to reconnect to that power—so you can run strong, feel energized, and train in a way that works with your body (not against it).
🔥 DAY 1 ACTION: RECONNECT TO WHERE YOU ARE NOW
Today, we’re starting with clarity and intention.
Before we change anything, we need to understand where you are right now—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Your action item for today:
✅ Complete the Self-Assessment & Journaling Prompts
This will help you reflect on how your running feels, what’s been working (and what hasn’t), and what you truly want moving forward.
Download the Challenge workbook here and complete the Day 1 activity.
✅ Running Self-Assessment: If you’re running today, notice how hard your run feels on a scale of 1-10. 1 = super easy, 10 = super hard. Just notice and write it down. If you’re not running today, write down what a typical run feels like for you on a scale of 1-10.
🎯 You can also find everything on the Challenge Access Page. It should take 10–15 minutes, and it will set the stage for real change.
We covered:
💥 The #1 mindset shift to run stronger after 40
💥 The real reason you feel different—and why it’s not your fault
💥 The first core ingredient to run without pain or burnout
💥 The root cause underlying all of the progress you make (or don’t make)
This will help you see why your body’s asking for something different—and how to start giving it what it needs.
