LET'S RUN! Half Marathon Training RUN DISNEY

[@lailafouzi6833]

Your running videos are so inspirational!! Gives me the push I need to go go go 🤗

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I'm so glad, Laila!! That's always my hope.

[@karamarie6878]

I loved your takeaway message. I'm not a runner, but I feel like that's just great advice. Covering the distance no matter how fast you accomplish it. ❤

[@dawnturpin]

Run walk crawl finish....I love that

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

YUP! Some days call for that kind of attitude!!

[@jcarey1357]

What a beautiful half way mark. I think the hardest part is just getting out to do it...This is Joyful living, you go girl!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Thanks, John!!

[@majorhollingshead5906]

Love it.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Thanks, Major!!

[@ChasingMajors]

Great video. Keep up the hard work. I'm training for my first marathon this upcoming Feb and vlogging about it. I love watching others also putting in work!

[@spmarsh3747]

Hi Jen, ANOTHER great video, thank you! I'm 56 and so sorry I didn't start running 25+ years ago as sadly, I'm probably a little too old to start but nothing to stop me from good walk! I hope all the KZbin regulation/nonsense settles down as I really look forward to and enjoy your videos. I hope your eye is totally healed and congratulations on a great run! ---Susan

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Thank you so much, Susan! Yes, the eye is all better, Thank God, and I so appreciated everyone's prayers and support! And the youTube channel will have to have a few tweaks but nothing major. I'm not going anywhere.

[@mahemphill93]

It looks so beautiful where you’re running!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

That trail goes about 12 miles in one direction and I absolutely adore it. Such a blessing to have a safe and gorgeous place to put the mileage in!

[@Belle.898]

Great job! Thanks for taking us with you. :) Decided to download the Interval Timer App.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Seriously that app is as simple as they come but sometimes simple is best!

[@ginaperez1804]

For me the first mile is the hardest. After that I think I’m in the zone! Love that you love your polar watch and I make more of an effort to wear mine. The video makes me want to train and run in races again.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

It's so true, the first mile is always hard!!

[@melissajmeli]

Why is it that 5 miles feels totally manageable, and 6 is so daunting? 😂 That always happens to me. Thanks for the inspiration! I haven’t run since Sunday and I have a 15K next week. Headed down to Orlando and I can’t WAIT to run in the mornings!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Oh my gosh i love running in Orlando this time of year!! And yes, no idea why. It’s a mystery!!🤣🥰

[@dreemkin2448]

I jogged without walking a 5k for the first time last week. I'm working now on going through the program with a faster pace. PS: I am not a runner and don't know any runner speak lol. Good job!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Well it sounds like you're a runner to me!!

[@marathonmegsie]

Love your runday Monday videos! “ could it be the endorphins talking? Quite possibly 🤣” Thanks for another great video!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

You are so welcome, Meghan! And it's the next day and I STILL think it was one of my best runs to date;).

[@jessicasahyouni848]

That encouragement was just what I needed now that I’m staring down my 20miler this weekend. :) no matter how many 20 mile runs I do, they always freak me out. Lol

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Seriously, Jessica, what is that?? I only had to do SIX MILES and I almost couldn't sleep! I've been a runner for a decade and I guess if that hasn't gone away by now it's not going to. But then we do it and go, wow, who knew??

[@ashleywilliams7960]

I agree that sometimes the hardest thing is to just get out the door. Mile 3 is often my toughest when I'm doing a long run. I just want to give up, my heart rate can be a bit high, (and sadly it is where I injured myself during two races this year). But once I get to mile 4, things just feel better and I have settled in to a groove. Good luck with training!

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

So, interesting, this was my first really long run doing heart rate training and I saw a steady incline until mile 4 and then things settled way down even though my pace went up! So I was running faster but my heart rate was went way down. Aren't our bodies fascinating??

[@kaylaandmarkalan]

You ran on vacation?! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

YUP! 4 times in fact. I actually really love running on cruise ships and they had an awesome promenade deck that was a 1/4 mile running track. Helps burn off the vacation calories!

[@Disneyonmymind-07]

Yes, the hardest part is getting out the door !

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Every dang time!!

[@sarahe5400]

What a terrific run! My 30 min for runday Monday was not great 🤷‍♀️. I think I needed another day of recovery (I did 5.25 miles on Saturday) & I needed more time stretching/foam rolling before my run. I’d have been barely ahead of the balloon ladies. 😂 It’ll be okay tho. I get to try again in a few days & then log 6.5 miles this weekend (hopefully).

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

I always need 2 days of recovery after a long run so I'm betting that's exactly what was going on with you, Sarah!

[@hamilr5431]

Is there a link to the run ID? I didnt see it in your Amazon link. Such a smart idea. Also the first mile is my hardest to get my body in the game and my mind in the right headspace.

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

just head to roadid.com and you'll find it! I'll go add the link in the description box now.

[@daniellemoore504]

woohoo! First view lol. Run Jen Run! :-)

[@JoyfulLivingwithJenLefforge]

Love it, Danielle!! Thank you!!
