Up and Running by Julia Jones
Up and Running offers a tried and tested plan to bring the transformative power of running to everyone, from manically busy mums to stressed and tired office workers. Julia Jones and Shauna Reid have successfully coached thousands of beginner runners across the world and they have discovered that sore knees and weary lungs are not the main obstacles to achieving your goals. Lack of confidence and unrealistic expectations are the real culprits, and these issues are fully addressed by the authors, who realize that running is a mental exercise as much as a physical one. A warm-up week is followed by a realistic, achievable eight-week training program that you can tailor to your own needs (including incorporating treadmill training into your workouts) to ensure that you make it across the finish line of your first 5k. The program continues with a going further section designed to help you prepare for the 10k distance. Running is more than putting one foot in front of the other--it's a mindfulness practice and an exercise in courage.
Jones, Julia: - I'm Julia. I'm a postpartum doula and I started working with exhausted and overwhelmed Newborn Mothers when I was only 24 years old, before I was a mother myself. Early on in my career I completed many postpartum trainings, and while they were all excellent in their own ways, none of them really addressed how to support Newborn Mothers through this major life transition, as a rite of passage. I am fascinated with Ayurveda, anthropology, hormones and brain science and this unusual combination has led me to a radically new paradigm for postpartum transformation. If you are pregnant or a Newborn Mother I'll teach you how to build your village, embrace baby brain and get in touch with your confidence and intuition. If you are a professional, I'll teach you how to create an abundant career and step into your life's work supporting Newborn Mothers. Now I've written books and created online courses and I have hundreds of students from dozens of countries around the world! I live by the Swan River in Fremantle with my husband and three children.
