I Will Go the Distance… just not very fast (Comments welcome!)

Yes! This is also on my list of options, but it feels like there are a LOT of people in that group. How can it possibly be optimized for each individual? Also, when I used the Galloway plan, I never did the full mileage. It was just TOO much time commitment, and I feel like that's a non negotiable for them. Also, if I'm just one of a group, will it be too easy for me to excuse myself from a workout or not push as hard as I should because I can kind of hide in the crowd? EDIT TO ADD: I'm so so glad it's working for you! I just know my tendencies and have doubts about myself in that setting.

There are a lot of people, but I never feel like I'm not getting personal attention. The zoom calls are enough accountability for me, plus he can see our workouts on their training platform. But if you need more accountability, I get it! And I get not wanting to do the full mileage. I don't mind it because it gets me out of the house for alone time.

Sorry little bit late to the conversation, I can only talk from what I think would work for me and why, but if a was spending $125 a month and I had someone holding me accountable on a 121 basis my chances of doing what I said I would increase exponentially. Also if you trust your coach when you lay out your goals and plans they will be focussed on getting you there.

To paraphrase “You got some power in your corner now Some heavy ammunition in your camp”

That last bit was in jest but if your really want to go for it I think a coach is the way to go, I would definitely consider doing the same if I got within striking distance of one of my long held goals.

Good luck with whatever option you go for
