Darren Hardy's new book, The Compound Effect, is very applicable to the daily habits that make a great runner, whether you are training for a race or simply want to stay healthy.
The compound effect is the simple daily habits, done consistently, that will duplicate tremendously over time. You just need to begin them and be consistent. They will later be part of your life and will multiply.
For example, if you look at my earlier posts, it was a stretch for me (no pun intended!) to get out and run consistently. Today, it is a given and I am looking more at my times and my strength. That is all due to habit duplicated over time. It all started with a small step repeated. Sound simple? It is, you just have to make the commitment to start and stick with it!
Happy Running!
