Speaker 1: 0:03

Hey friends, coach Shelby and Coach Christine, welcoming you in and letting you know it's time for brunch, quick Bites edition, where you can grab your miles with a side of smiles, take them on the run midday in the afternoon or maybe a late night snack attack, cause you know we're busy and sometimes going the extra mile is necessary. Well, it might not mean literally adding distance to your runs or your walks, especially if you're one of our athletes. We don't want to see those extra miles. But in the spirit of it being National Extra Mile Day, we're going to focus on the minds that it takes to go the extra mile on your runs, in your day and beyond. And I've have a very serious question to ask you, coach Christine, and I want you to be honest, I'm ready. When you go out for your miles, do you go the extra little bit of the mile to make them even numbers, or is it your dirty little secret that you like to stop at like 0.36 or 0.49?.

Speaker 2: 1:01

I only know one person who does that Really.

Speaker 1: 1:03

Yeah, is it part of a true crime series?

Speaker 2: 1:06

Cause I feel like right, I have all the runners that I've run with, I only know one who, almost, I feel like, goes out of her way to stop at some weird odd number, or she does it to kind of like frazzle the rest of us that have to have an even stop somewhere.

Speaker 1: 1:21

I feel like I know this person.

Speaker 2: 1:23

I feel like they're in our challenge group right now.

Speaker 1: 1:25

They are.

Speaker 2: 1:26

They are, I swear. I was thinking about her when I was out for my run this morning and going the extra distance so I could be nice and even, and I thought I was like I want to go check out her challenges because I guarantee that none of them have been even. So I think we could go ahead and say a big shout out to Kimba, because she is definitely the only runner I know that really seems to be kind of just takes a little bit of like a huge joy and I love that for her. But that is not me Like it drives me, but like absolutely baddie. Not only to not have like a round number, but like my totals. I want them to be round, like right now in my mind I want to go back out for a run so that I can get my totals to a like a round number. So, yeah, I think you should not have expressed the amount of OCD that I have out into the world, but it is true. How about you coach?

Speaker 1: 2:19

Okay, when I was a new runner, I was no lie obsessed with it being round and on the point. Now you don't care, I think I really. I just I'm ready for it to be like checked off. I'm ready for it to be done Like. I don't want to go the extra point too. If I'm in front of my house, I'm not going to walk around the block, I am just going to be like well, guess, I miscalculated that one and I'm calling it a day, which is so different than what I think people would expect from me. Yeah.

Speaker 2: 2:53

Honestly, I would have totally expected yours to always be like super duper. Even so, it goes to show that, like you can never really guess what kind of runner somebody is, just by just my first impressions, necessarily. So I'm curious what folks will respond on this one. I think this will also be a hotly contested conversation, but I think most runners tend to want it, or they don't necessarily care if it's even per se, but it's got to be like 3.11 for a 5k or 6.22 for a 10k or whatever the case may be. So we'll have to see if folks feel like they have to have those round totals.

Speaker 1: 3:30

Now I do do that when I turn the volume up on the TV. I like even numbers, I don't like odd numbers. So again, talking about going the extra mile, that I actually pay attention to the volume number.

Speaker 2: 3:42

I just want it to be at the decibel that I enjoy. I don't particularly care like what it's at, I just want to make sure that I enjoy it, so stick with me, I'll give you idiosyncrasies that you'll always remember.

Speaker 1: 3:53

Oh, my word. Okay, but what does it mean for you to go the extra mile for yourself on the run? What it doesn't have to do with physical mileage, is it pushing yourself the extra rep, maybe going a little bit harder in the pacing? What does that look like to you? Because I feel like extra mile. People always just think distance. That's an obvious choice, but where do you kind of put your mindset?

Speaker 2: 4:21

That's a great question and I think that when it comes to me for extra mile, it's not. It isn't necessarily the distance, though I will say that that tends to happen the most. It's the easiest one, I would say, to fall back on. I think what it goes down to is for me, when I'm running with folks, is to make sure that I am able to be able to meet them where they're at. So if they need someone that can run their intervals or that can go their specific distance, I do like going that extra mile.

Speaker 2: 4:51

So, even if it's not necessarily on my run agenda for the day, adding in a little bit of miles or even pulling back on my pacing so that I can be there with others is really important for me. So going the extra mile that way, I think, personally, going the extra mile is something that I feel like I hold myself to standard and all regards to my life, like I always want that little bit extra bit of sparkle, whatever that may be. So I think that's kind of probably how I'm. I like to think that I'm programmed. But how about you? What do you what? What makes your heart tick to go the extra mile?

Speaker 1: 5:27

So for me on my personal fitness journey, I would say going the extra mile is taking new routes, because I am a creature of habit. I like, again, talk about liking to know my distances and just knowing where I'm going. I think when I want to push that envelope and push that self care and give myself that extra mile, I do try to change up even where I start and where I finish, or taking an extra side street that I don't normally take. To me that feels luxurious. All of the moms out there probably realize that like ooh, I'm being daring, I'm going down the third street versus the fourth street. But for me that's pushing myself.

Speaker 1: 6:08

The extra mile is getting out of that comfort zone. And I will say for my athletes I always like to kind of every once in a while throw that different challenge into their runs, whether it's a higher pace or an extra rep or maybe doing strides at the beginning or the end and just changing up what they think they can do and pushing them out of their comfort zone. When I think of the extra mile, I think pushing out of the comfort zone because honestly, for me as a coach and as an athlete, that seems to be the hardest part. You can usually push yourself to go the extra 0.25 distance because it's an easy metric, like you said, but thinking out of that box is often a lot harder, which I know we're going to talk more about today.

Speaker 2: 6:55

Yeah, I would wholeheartedly agree. So, of course, folks, we always invite you to jump into the Facebook community and let us know how you like to go the extra mile and what does it mean to you. So, of course, celebrating going the extra mile today is a lot of fun, as we have that on the works. But are you ready to get into it? Coach A few different ways to go that extra mile.

Speaker 1: 7:18

I am here for it and I think I'm actually going to go the extra mile and steal the thunder and I'm going to go first, which I don't normally. I don't normally just raise my hand and I go for the participation trophy. But I'm going to say, a really big way to get out of your comfort zone and go the extra mile is by volunteering, especially for people who tend to be introverts, which I am an ambi over. I always say it like Amber, but I know it's not exactly the pronunciation, so no one come at me. But volunteering, whether that's at a race, whether that's at a food bank, maybe at your kids school, any of those times to where it's not, it's not maybe in your norm, it really does fill your cup up and fill the heart of others and I think it's a great way to go that little bit of extra mile and not expect anything in return, just doing it for the goodness of being involved.

Speaker 2: 8:12

I would agree. I'd love volunteering. I feel like it gives more than what it takes in terms of your day and schedule and all of the different things that you take away from it. So that's a great one. Now I think we should kind of talk a little bit, before we get into more of the ways of going into the extra mile, a bit about how extra mile day came to be, because it actually appears that this phrase evolved Go the extra mile quaint from a line in the Bible. I did not know that for the record.

Speaker 1: 8:40

I did not. I guess I was not paying.

Speaker 2: 8:41

I was not going to extra mile at Bible study when I was growing up, evidently because I did not know that at all, but it officially became established extra mile America here in the, of course. In the United States of America it was established by Sean Anderson and the extra mile America Foundation in 2009. Then the extra mile day officially November 1st was introduced on 2011. And it just kind of took off from there in 2014. A lot of American cities started to embrace it and now we see over 500 cities in the U? S that celebrate extra mile day in a more official capacity.

Speaker 2: 9:15

I don't think that you have the day off from work on extra mile day for the record.

Speaker 2: 9:18

I think that's kind of like the antithesis of going the extra mile, but I still love to see that it's being very wholeheartedly embraced.

Speaker 2: 9:27

So I think that when I think of the people that I want to emulate and that I maybe put on more of a who, my inspirations are, maybe even a bit of an aspiration, are the people that I feel like went the extra mile historically.

Speaker 2: 9:42

So this is such a fun day to be talking about it, which I think one of the things that is wonderful to go the extra mile and we've talked a lot about this is being there for a friend. Now we could be there for a friend when they're in need, or we can start fostering that relationship even when they don't have those lows, because if they've recently lost someone or maybe had a change of life, they're likely hearing from a lot of folks those first few days. But it's going to be those longer lasting connections of people checking in on them a couple months down the road or checking in on just how they're doing. Can you stop by inviting them out? Those are definitely going to be the ones that kind of really speaks to your heart, not to mention, again, talk about going the extra mile. What's so beautiful about this is that it 100% comes back to you Like and it's also open for interpretation.

Speaker 2: 10:37

Yeah, yeah, I think that we're having this discussion right now, Like would you interpret it differently with going listening to or being there for a friend?

Speaker 1: 10:48

As far as, like how I interpret, how would it be there for a friend? Yeah, so kind of building off of what you said is like reaching out in the good times, in the front part of it as well as the back end. Even again, going that little extra mile and instead of asking if they need anything, maybe just saying, hey, do you like Panera, chipotle? And sending them a gift card or dropping off food or Door Dash or whatever is most ability at you at that time, but maybe not always asking for the permission to be there for somebody and trying to come up with that actionable item and still giving them the space, but taking that little bit of a load off of them.

Speaker 2: 11:29

Yeah, that's a really good one, because, most often than not, if somebody is in that timing of their life where there's just a lot going on, they don't really need to have an additional task of how to figure out how to help you help them. So that's a great point. I also think, though, that you know again and I know we've touched on this and I'm going to probably talk about it so, in the face, there is a national epidemic of loneliness, and this is one of the ones where, if you really do go the extra mile of just putting yourself out there and creating a circle of friends, it will be one of the most, most of the rewarding experiences of your life.

Speaker 1: 12:08

And definitely, definitely will. And again, it can be in happy times or in hard times. There's no hard and fast rules. And even going the extra mile for your spouses or your partners and taking that internal extra mile and maybe that means you know, putting your phone away when you guys are together or watching what they want to watch I know there are a lot of us people right now who may be very infatuated with Taylor Swift and that she is dating a football player and maybe going the extra mile is trying to actually figure out football, which I have a basic understanding, but I've definitely taken more of an interest. Not sure if that's considered an extra mile, because it's serving both of us, but I'm going to, kind of as a win.

Speaker 2: 12:52

I think it's a win it's a win, I think I'm really going back to the extra mile is that at the end of the day, it really does help you. You have a sense of pride, you get all of these wonderful. It sounds very esoteric and we want to sound like we're really like selfless in a lot of the things of going the extra mile, but at the end of the day, there is a self of self, sense of self satisfaction. So, coach, what else are you doing besides learning more about football, because you are our resident Swiftie here.

Speaker 1: 13:20

I am rooting for this relationship. I'm not even going to try to try to front on that. But one thing personally I've been doing to go the extra mile for myself again, because we can go the extra mile for other people as well as self it's not selfish is staying motivated and even if I'm having a hard time fitting in a workout or fitting in a run, still making myself go for that walk, take that little bit of quiet time, putting on a song that fills my cup and having a dance party Again, it's always going to be multifaceted because that's where our lives are, but by staying motivated and not letting myself put myself last is a way that I'm going the extra mile to show up for myself so I can keep showing up for everybody else as well, filling my cup so I can pour a little out and then take a little swig in.

Speaker 2: 14:11

Yeah, I'm with you on that. That's an awesome way. So how do you stay motivated? Because I think that that is one of the hardest things for folks.

Speaker 1: 14:20

So I could do probably 15 episodes on this particular subject. So stay tuned, maybe a new series idea, but staying motivated for me is I really focus on. It's going to be harder if I lapse, because it's like anything else Getting started is really freaking hard, keeping going is even harder and restarting is it can be a dark black hole that is hard to recover from. So I always remind myself, like we say in running, we say in walking forward is a pace, and as long as I keep going forward, even in the smallest morsels, it's keeping that building upright. It's keeping those blocks from going ahead and crushing down. And if I can do that, some days are going to be easier. And even on those hard days there's still something happening.

Speaker 2: 15:17

Yeah, I don't necessarily believe in staying motivated, for the record. I believe in staying consistent. So I think that that is because motivation is going to wane and there's going to be times where I am super excited to get out for a workout or a project or a task or whatever the case may be. But being consistent with the habits that I've built in has been more motivational for me, or definitely part of going the extra mile, because I think that for me it really was a turning point when I saw that it had to just be a consistent practice of a daily habit. I'm not meaning that I go out for a run every day, but a consistent practice of habits has been more helpful in going that extra mile in the long run. All of the puns intended, of course.

Speaker 1: 16:03

Right Now, this other one I feel like speaks directly to you and your love language of how you go the extra mile, and I feel like that's mentoring somebody. I feel like this is where you absolutely shine, whether it's in business, in friendship, in running. You can apply this to every different type of activity and this is you to a T.

Speaker 2: 16:31

Thank you so much, coach.

Speaker 1: 16:33

I appreciate that. Again, no cap. I'm still trying to be cool guys, but no cap. Like when I think of how you go the extra mile, that is one of the first things I think of with you.

Speaker 2: 16:44

Thank you.

Speaker 2: 16:45

I think it could be one of the things that I love the most.

Speaker 2: 16:48

I also love both being a mentor and a mentee, so I feel like I've really helped myself in creating a really good circle of people that shared life experiences with me and their wisdom, so that I can learn from them.

Speaker 2: 17:09

So it is about paying it forward and definitely as long as I possibly can, and also knowing that life experiences vary from person to person, so it's not necessarily that you have to walk the same shoes. More so, it is the experience of those nuggets. It's kind of like how should I look at this or how can I get a fresh perspective? So I love helping others to see things from different perspectives, because I think that's where we get in our way a lot. It's hard to see the full picture when you're in it and then having someone else kind of help, you see there's different pathways, there's different solutions, or there's always the possibility that there's not necessarily a solution in figuring out a way to get through the situation. So thank you, I do love that. I think it is a fun way of going the extra mile. It kind of goes hand in hand a little bit with my volunteering as well too.

Speaker 1: 18:01

I can totally see that I wouldn't have drawn that parallel. But as soon as you said it I'm like yep, that tracks. That makes sense. For me it's random acts of kindness. You are, I love random acts of kindness.

Speaker 2: 18:15

You are a broke girl. There is no doubt about it. I do think that's so special and I love that, and I know that we've done a special episode on random acts of kindness and I think that as we start to get into this time of the year, this is such a pivotal time where people can go the extra mile with a random act of kindness pretty easily. So how are some of your favorite ways of doing random acts of kindness to go the extra mile?

Speaker 1: 18:40

Well, I'm going to start off with. I think this one speaks to me because the random act of kindness and going the extra mile, there are literally no bounds. This can apply to your friend, your spouse, somebody you don't even know. My favorite is just Opening the door for somebody and smiling. It is the smallest part and seems so insignificant, but the chain effect going from there speaks volumes, like I feel.

Speaker 1: 19:11

And Again, talk about some controversial thoughts. I think holding the door open for a stranger and smiling is almost better than buying him a cup of coffee, because I don't feel like people always expect it. Not that people expect you to buy your coffee, but we always see the viral videos of, like the chains and everything. And while it's wonderful it's, it's surprising in a different way to where holding a door open for somebody who has their hands full or is even just taking a Little bit longer, versus just saying, oh well, they'll catch up or what have you. It makes people feel seen in that real sense versus Not being able to kind of see that kindness Fronts face to face.

Speaker 2: 19:56

I think it's a smile. I mean, honestly, I know that that's one of your like signatures For race weekends is that you're there to like give an encouraging word and a smile to everyone around you. So I would agree that it is more so of just part of your DNA and who you are. I Don't even know that I think of it as random.

Speaker 1: 20:17

I think it's. You are at this point, but I mean it is even again and we touched upon it for, like taking the cart back, making sure that if you pick up an item in the store and you don't decide not to take it, that you put it back when it was, versus just leaving on the shelf. But even Random Acts of kindness, like I had gotten flowers for a baby shower and I had extras and I just kind of left them in little places that were appropriate.

Speaker 1: 20:46

But it's just a little that little brightness, or even leaving a note in a book at a library. I might have done that at the school. So if anybody gets a random note, it's okay.

Speaker 2: 20:57

That makes me think of one of my favorite things ever is those little book libraries that folks have, where you have to kind of, yes, those are amazing, and to anyone who has them, I want to be the first. Well, I want to be one of the many people who thank you for that. It's such a wonderful resource for your neighborhood, so that's absolutely awesome, and if I had a home, versus a tiny little condo, I would make sure to have one, but I don't so.

Speaker 1: 21:22

So we've talked a lot about like non fitness ways to go the extra mile and we talked about how we go the extra mile and are running a little bit. But what are some other fitness ways that you tend to try to go the extra mile? So I know, for me it's adding weights to my strength training.

Speaker 2: 21:39

Yeah, I love the fact that we have different seasons and I think going the extra mile in different seasons does look very different. So I've made everyone pretty well known that generally, after my last fall marathons, I've decided that likely I won't do another fall marathon. So I usually spend summer more in the weight training and that is a great time, folks, to kind of look at your weather patterns and if for you folks who are up north, maybe winter is the perfect time for you to go to extra mile with your strength training, your mobility and all the things that you tend to neglect when you're in those heavy, heavy mile training months because there's only so much time in the day, of course. So I agree, that's a fantastic way to go the extra mile and I know, as we're coming up on this kind of a season where a lot of folks are having Difficulty getting in their miles, maybe it does look like changing up your running a little bit so that you can get in more strength training.

Speaker 1: 22:33

Absolutely. And what about? Because I know you do love your lifting heavy? So if you already have the weights down, do you tend to go the extra mile with reps or maybe cutting down your rest period between sets? How do you kind of adapt?

Speaker 2: 22:47

It really depends on what it is that I'm going for. So if I'm in a power lifting season, it is all about the weight and going heavier and that is my extra mile. So from session to session lifting to the strongest I possibly can is definitely where I look at that. But if I'm in a season where I'm doing more of like the split training and it might look like that intensity of going in, a bit more of Reducing recovery time, now this is where I'm going to get into.

Speaker 2: 23:19

For all of the wonderful folks with us, both women and men, shortening those recovery times as we get older is not the best way of approaching your strength training. Regardless of what way you're You're acclimating for your training, and even more so for us women that may be in that Paraminopause, menopause, post-menopause aspect of our life, when you start to make your in your Recovery so short that you're starting to get into almost like a hit style strength training, that spikes your cortisol and it helps to kind of put your body in a state of Kind of a stress response. You're running already, does that enough? So I'd rather see folks that are like 40, 45, 50 plus Look at strength training and going next to a mile by getting in some really strong lifts. So if you have any questions on that, of course you should reach out to us at input time for brunchcom. We can talk about lifting, running and going the extra mile in all the random ways.

Speaker 2: 24:15

Oh, I love that, I love your brain so how do you go the extra mile, especially working with moms? Because I don't. I would think that going with working with moms Lifting heavies likely not going to be great when you're first recovering and needing to get back into the swing of things.

Speaker 1: 24:33

Yeah.

Speaker 1: 24:33

So specifically in that post-partum era, when you're in the first six weeks I mean, obviously you're you're pretty minimal of lifting in general, um, especially because you don't want to risk hernias, um, because that whole muscle tone, regardless of how you delivered, it's all weekend, it's all susceptible, um, even after, uh, getting like a tubular ligation or even a hysterectomy if that was part of your your post natal plan.

Speaker 1: 25:05

Um, the risk for hernias are really really high and lifting anything Heavy of even five pounds can really increase your risk of developing that and it's a whole host of other issues. So I'm a big believer in the body weights and if Moms are wanting to go ahead and push themselves as they're getting back into the fitness and they're moving a little bit past the body weight portion, that's when the light dumbbells, light hand weights, Um, even household objects that can be used, I don't really recommend the weights being used for a good while after delivery again, regardless of how the baby was delivered, and even for those going through adoption or fostering, taking into account that the movement in general, even if you're not physically recovering from birth or welcoming a new family member of your family, being mindful of the mental load that you're having to endure and focusing more on the time and the movement versus the intensity. So it's kind of a backwards way of going the extra mile of making sure you're managing the overall care versus trying to do it all.

Speaker 2: 26:20

Yeah, I know, I think that's definitely going the extra mile, because any time that you aren't being mindful as to how you approach things can be quite the setback. So that's a great reminder. So what other ways do you think of going the extra mile for when we're focusing on fitness and not talking about miles?

Speaker 1: 26:41

So another great way is taking the activity and elevating it. I know you've talked about doing hot yoga and bickering yoga before. If you are doing more of like a vinyasa yoga and you're looking to change it up a little bit, going the extra mile, maybe signing up for one of those classes, that might donch you a little bit more testing it out, especially with a lot of areas of the country and in the world getting colder right now, maybe you're looking to get a little extra sweaty and you don't mind the extra heat. It could be a great time to again push out that comfort zone and go the extra mile and try something that you hadn't before and, who knows, you might absolutely love it, you might hate it, but you're gonna love it Again.

Speaker 2: 27:24

you're gonna love eating it, hate loving it.

Speaker 1: 27:26

all that jazz, I mean, isn't that kind of running in a nutshell. So let's just make it with yoga too, maybe kind of fitness, it's always going to be challenges.

Speaker 2: 27:33

Everything always feels foreign, even if you've done it 3,000 times. So it is coming from a place of going the extra mile with your mindset and allowing yourself to kind of be okay with being a bit of a beginner and not feeling like you have it 100%. So that's a phenomenal way. Now I think that while I love mentoring folks and that's definitely my love language and helping people in that way I think another big love language that I tend to use in my mentoring is setting specific goals. I love, I am like such a goal.

Speaker 1: 28:05

I can attest to this.

Speaker 2: 28:06

I am such a goal digger, my friends, I cannot resist setting up goals, and now I know that I have quite a few of you that are also very, very metric goal focused. So kind of helping people to see there's different ways to approach goals. It isn't always all about the numbers going faster or getting a bigger promotion or ever. Those things may be wherever you're at in your life. But setting those goals, knowing that it's about the journey versus the outcome and I love when you start to shift your mindset of this is empowering me every day as I strive for the goal. So whether that goal is achieved or not achieved isn't quite as the important metric, though I mean it feels amazing when you achieve it, of course. But I think there's a really great quote, when I think of goals, from Nelson Mandela where he says I never lose. I either win or I learn. And I think that's where I go with goals.

Speaker 2: 29:02

It's like, okay, so we didn't achieve it, cool, let's figure out. Like, what could we have done better? What do we need to do next? So I really love goal setting and I know that we've done workshops on it. If you guys have questions, maybe, coach, I feel like maybe we should do and we should bring that workshop to the podcast. Maybe we do a whole goal, digging web like podcast. We'll see if you guys are interested in it. Let us know, because we tend to do it here at TFB a little differently. We don't just do the smart goal, we add a little bit of fun to it.

Speaker 1: 29:36

Yes, a little AF if you will Exactly.

Speaker 1: 29:42

I love all of that and again, just, I think, all in all, going the extra mile. I think we're both saying the same thing breaking out of our comfort zone. And if you want to go the physical extra mile on your runs, again, if you're one of our one on one athletes or in a training group, don't do it. Stick to your plan. However, if it's something that you want to consider again, you can always reach out to us, but try to maybe go the extra mile and think out of the box and see what you can unlock.

Speaker 2: 30:16

I love that coach. It's such a great reminder that we're here anytime you guys want to discuss these kind of things. But again, we're also very excited to have our wonderful Friday episode dropping. So we can't wait for you guys to tell us all about it what you think, because I think it's going to give you quite a bit of tips and tricks to help you get through that daylight savings time. And, of course, next week we are super stoked because finally we're going to do that taste testing with what we love the most Kinda oh kind of sorta.

Speaker 1: 30:49

Again, our taste buds might tend to differ, but we are going to be doing that live at taste testing. We're only doing it on our YouTube channel, so if you are not already subscribed, make sure to go into show notes or head over to our site, timeforbrunchcom to set up that reminder bookmarkets. Subscribe and you might want to stay tuned because we're going to be unwrapping our 2023 holiday gift guide series, which we swore after last year like we're going to pair it down, and we did.

Speaker 2: 31:17

But again, we go the extra mile.

Speaker 1: 31:20

We go the extra mile with the goodies, with the series and literally everything in between.

Speaker 2: 31:26

Absolutely so. You guys asked for it too, so we are excited to bring that back, and if you have some specific things that didn't make the list last year, this is your time to reach out and make sure that we're aware that we need to add it to this gift guide this time around. But again, we cannot wait for you guys to join us. Again, we have tons of goodies. We are indeed going the extra mile. We can't wait to have you join us because, regardless of when or where, we're going to keep serving up more miles with some extra miles of smiles.
