Ready to Train Smarter? Here’s What to Do Next

You’ve made it to the end of this series — and if you’re still here, one thing’s clear:

You’re not interested in running harder just for the sake of it.

You want to train smarter.

To run well. Stay injury-free.

And feel proud of what your body can still do — not frustrated by what it can’t.

Let’s quickly recap what we’ve covered:

What You’ve Learned Over the Past 7 Posts

• Your best running years might still be ahead — if you train the right way

• Most running advice doesn’t account for what your body needs after 45

• You don’t need more volume — you need more purpose

• Strength, recovery, and a smarter pace matter more than ever

• Real people over 50 are improving, hitting PBs, and feeling better in their running

• Small daily habits go a long way

• And having a personalised plan can change everything

So the big question now is:

What’s Next for You?

You’ve got a few options:

1. Keep Going Solo

Take what you’ve learned here and apply it yourself. If that works for you — go for it. You’re ahead of 90% of runners already.

2. Join Run Squad

If you haven’t already, join us at Run Squad We meet at various places in Footscray, Newport, Yarraville, and Williamstown.

3. Have a Chat With Me

If you’re ready to take things further — or just want a second opinion on your current training — book a free, no-pressure strategy call.

It’s 15 minutes. No jargon. No sales pitch. Just a genuine conversation about your running, what’s working, what’s not, and what might help.

The Bottom Line

You don’t need to run like you’re 25.

You just need to run in a way that suits who you are now — and who you want to become.

If you’re ready to train smarter, I’d love to help.

Run smart,
