In this episode of Your Running Coach with GMacSpurr, Coach G debunks one of the most damaging myths in running culture: that you have to be fit to start running.

If you've ever thought you need to "look like a runner" before you lace up, this conversation is for you. Coach G unpacks the toxic messages we absorb from fitness culture and reminds you that you are allowed to begin, exactly as you are today. She walks you through the common fears and doubts that show up at the beginning of a running journey, while offering powerful mindset shifts to help you start with confidence and compassion.

Running isn’t about speed or stats, it’s about showing up with consistency and courage. With personal insights from her start in 2014, and journal prompts like “Where did I learn I need to be fit to be a runner?”, this episode will help you celebrate what your body can do now, not what it looks like. Because the start line doesn’t ask for perfection—it asks you to show up.
