Audiobook Chapter 8: Running For Weight Loss | ISSA Running Coach Course
I LOVED the ISSA Running Coach course! One downside was that it was entirely in PDF format and required reading. Since I prefer learning on the go, I converted this important chapter into an audiobook. Keep in mind, some of the words, graphs and charts may sound a bit off, so you'll need to follow along in those sections. I listened to this specific module at least 5x!

There are 10 modules with dozens of chapters in the course. I really liked the info but feel the course platform is a little behind the times, so I stepped it up. Literally. I did 10,000 walking steps each time I put it on and it inspired a better run.
My key takeaway for both casual running and marathon training is this:
Running is a great way to manage weight. But for me it's an even better to manage my brain.
