In this episode of the Rambling Runner podcast, I continue my "How Can I Run Like I Used To?" mini-series.

When we restart our running journey we are usually filled with excitement and vigor. That is wonderful! However, we need to balance those emotions with a plan of attack that allows us to build a foundation, identify problem areas we can address proactively, and set ourselves up for the exponential growth that can happen later in the process.
