Love this and hoping to get back into running again so going to try your method of running to a cafe :)! Also…will be in Paris for a couple days next week… ☕️

Let me know when you do (both for the run & Paris timing)!

I love all of the photos from your café runs! I do the same thing often – out-and-backs can be so tedious and boring. Hell yes to "how to get out of the cycle of running so hard every time that you start to hate it" -- this was sooo crucial to the beginning of my running journey. Someone said to run half as fast as you think you need to and that made a huge difference

Same here! For me, it was learning about the concept of an "easy" run and to pace runs by "effort" (aka, how hard it feels to you on a scale from 1-10), rather than traditional measurements like speed/distance/etc. Eventually, those things improve anyway! And thanks about the photos :) They're a little goofy and I felt a little self-conscious posting them, if I'm honest!!
