After living in Japan for 4 years and recently visiting again I still soak in the "wa" and wish we could bring it more to the USA where I live now. In today's life episode we'll discuss "wa" and dive into culture in general. Having an openness to other cultures and taking the best from many of them has enriched my life and it can yours too.

Some of these issues were a little challenging to discuss and I surprised myself as I reflected on some of the intense issues with body changes from girls to women, managing the annoying but very important menstral cycle, body image and taking care of our bodies, and let's not forget the gap between genders. This one has a lot. Buckle up! Join my mailing list! Just sent a quick email to dawnpedersonruns@gmail.com with the title "Email List" and I'll add you to my list.

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. "I don't have time". I fear these words. This is one of the biggest reasons given when someone doesn't have regular exercise habits. To this I say...don't have time? Make time! The truth is, we all have the same 24 hours a day and our days either fill up with meaningless who knows what or we take control of our time and make things happen in our lives. This choice is yours! Let's learn together about how to make time for running, or anything else that may be important to you that you "don't have time" for. Join my mailing list!

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. Greetings from Japan! I've been traveling the last couple of weeks and want to share with you a way I've found to make the most of vacations - running of course. Running tourism is a great way to see the sights whether it be staycation mode or vacation mode. Come learn all about one of the most enjoyable forms of running I've found, no not hills, speedwork, or even long runs. You won't find this one on any of your workout plans, but you will find it to be a good way to open your eyes and see the beauty around you, wherever you are.

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. S.A.D. is a really sad and appropriate acronym for Seasonal Affective Disorder. S.A.D. has a lot in common with and can turn into depression, but it also has some distinct differences. Hi, I'm Dawn, and I struggle with S.A.D. Join me today as we learn more about this mental health issue, things that help, when to be concerned, and much more. I'm excited to share with you my experience and continue to offer the thought that mental health, like physical health, is something that should be discussed openly and honestly, not secretively and shamefully.

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. Mindset, mindset, mindset. I'm reminded again and again how important mindset is, both in running, and in everything we do. Recording this episode I came off a pretty hard day and an equally hard week and just talking about having a better mindset put a spring in my step and helped me realize that yet again, "I've got this". Today's mindset technique is called "Power Statements" something I discovered a couple years ago with my cross-country team . We're done surviving! It's time to thrive! Join my mailing list!

Some I hold with fond memories, others I've almost forgotten or would be better off having forgotten. Any way about it, I love this distance.

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. Tapering. That glorious and yet dreaded time when you get to cut the miles, clean up the loose ends, and prepare for race day...by not doing much.

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. Another flash back episode! Re-listen to episode 2 or enjoy it for the first time...all cleaned up. It was interesting to review this while editing and remember from 10 months ago why I love running. Some of these have changed a bit over the last year and some are the same. It's amazing how much we can grow as runners and people each year. This episode also hits on goals and how much running can help with goals both running and non-running.

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. As we end this year, this is my little gift to you. It's my first episode, and one of the most popular...all cleaned up. When I started in this podcast in February I knew nothing about editing a podcast, so those first few episodes are a little rough. Listen again without the awkward pauses, "ums", and my phone buzzing in the background. Don't have time to listen because of the holidays? No worries, just skipped this one, and listen for new content coming soon. This episode highlights who I am, my running history, and why I started this podcast. We also dive into the many reasons people hate running and how to work about some of those major roadblocks and give running a try...again...or for the first time. See you there!

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. For me, and I'm sure many others, the marathon is almost unattainable. Don't get me wrong, I've run marathons, six of them, but it's all been quite a battle and I've come out beaten. Everything from cramped legs, sick stomach, getting lost on the course, having a bad mindset, weather challenging, and even a little train have kept me from feeling like the marathon was something I could grasp onto. So...instead of call that good, I've applied the "get back on the bike" mentally and I just keep trying. This episode is all about the next attempt, marathon #7. How will it go this time?

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. For myself, my family, kids I coach, and other runners I know...my biggest concern in many ways is safety. If I go out on a run and don't feel safe that run becomes a stressor instead of a stress relief. Over the years I've found many ways to increase my safety and to feel safer, even if there is no immediate threat. Come along as I share these tips today: self-defense, running safely around cars, bikes, and animals, running in the dark, and more. See ya there...and stay safe out there friends!

Send a Fanmail text to this podcast. Oh the treadmill! One of the most controversial topics in running. Should you use a treadmill? My answer is "yes" and "no". Really....it depends. Let's discuss when a treadmill would be a great choice and other times where it might hinder your progress. Also, with holiday season in full swing, please join me with the "Dust off and name your treadmill challenge". It's as simple as it sounds: Dust off (or more) your treadmill, give it a name to make it more endearing to you, and then...use it. Don't have one? Name one at your local gym instead. Either way, snap a picture and post to your favorite social media page with the hashtags: #nameyourtreadmill #dawnrunning #runningbydawnpodcast. Can't wait to see your pictures!
