The Runner's Strategy

Long-distance running provides a useful analogue for any major project or endeavor. Runners follow a time-tested strategy when they race and train:

- Start slowly
- Keep going
- Keep an eye on the road and your footing
- Relax
- Expect things to get tough at some point
- Adjust the pace when necessary (faster or slower)
- Pay attention when something doesn't feel right
- Enjoy the journey
- Resist the urge to give up

Follow these steps, and you'll have a good chance of reaching your goal, whether it's running a 10k race, planning a big event, learning a new skill, publishing a book, or finishing a university degree.

Good luck, and keep going!
