    Running Tips from Tim:

    1.Walk Before You Run: Tim’s early years of walking long distances helped build his endurance for running.

    2.Start Small, Dream Big: You don’t have to start with a marathon—take your time and build up your distance.

    3.Be Inspired by Challenges: Don’t shy away from tough runs; use them as a way to push your limits.

    4.Find Your Own Pace: Running is personal, so listen to your body and find the pace that works for you.

    5.Enjoy the Journey: Running is more than just racing—enjoy the adventure and the places it takes you.

    6.Be Part of the Community: Running with others or joining a running group can give you extra motivation.
