How Interval Running Is Changing More Than My Pace🌟

A week ago, I started something that honestly scared me.

I’ve NEVERRR been a runner. A few years ago, I couldn’t even keep up with my kids. Now, after losing over 100+ pounds, I’m learning to run one interval at a time.

This isn’t about being fast. It’s about proving to myself that I can keep growing, even after reaching goals I once thought were impossible.

If you’re starting from zero, I hope this reminds you that everyone starts somewhere. Your pace doesn’t matter. Showing up does.

... Read moreStarting interval running was intimidating at first, especially since I had never considered myself a runner. But what surprised me the most wasn’t just the physical changes—it was the shift in mindset and resilience that came with it. Each short burst of running followed by walking helped me build strength gradually, making the journey approachable and sustainable. One key lesson I learned is that the finish line isn't the only goal; the daily commitment to showing up is what truly drives change. Even on days when running felt difficult or slow, I reminded myself that every small effort added up. The progress wasn’t about speed or distance in the beginning but about embracing the process, no matter how small the steps seemed. Tracking my progress week by week showed tangible improvements. For example, during week two, my average pace improved, and I was proud to consistently complete 2 miles with interval running. But the real victory was how interval training boosted my confidence and willingness to push past mental barriers. Interval running also provided me with structure. Alternating between running and walking felt less daunting than trying to run continuously and helped manage my energy. This approach prevents burnout and allows the body to recover, making it an excellent option for beginner runners or those returning from a long break. Beyond fitness, interval running positively impacted my mental well-being. I started feeling stronger, not just physically but emotionally, as I proved to myself that I could tackle challenges I once thought impossible. It encouraged a mindset of progress over perfection, reminding me that consistency is the ultimate key to any goal. If you’re new to running or considering starting your own fitness journey, I encourage you to try interval running. Don’t focus on pace—focus on commitment. Celebrate each interval you complete. Remember, becoming a runner looks a lot like walking sometimes, but the important thing is to keep showing up for yourself. Each step forward is a victory worth celebrating.
