Fellow Runners Offer Their Running Resolutions for 2015

If you’ve been paying attention for the past few days, it’s pretty clear that I’m a fan of New Year’s Resolutions. Whether you want to call them resolutions or goals for the year, I love making big plans for myself and being able to see how much my hard work and consistent effort can accomplish over a period of weeks and months.

When I talk about my goals and plans for 2015, I hope that I’m able to inspire others to set big goals for themselves and then do whatever it takes to achieve them by the end of the year.

I’m not the only runner in the world that has goals for 2015 that are capable of inspiring action in others. I asked a number of running friends of mine to share their goals for their running this year, and I was floored by the response.

I’m excited to share the running resolutions of the following individuals with you on today’s episode of the podcast, which has the feel of a group run. I hope that you’ll find as much inspiration from what these amazing men and women are doing in 2015 as I have.
