Climb Your Mountain
Life coach, mountaineer, and ultra runner Sarah Maurer shares her best endurance training strategies to help you climb your mountain or run your race — in any body at any age. Listen and learn how to eat, train, think, and above all live like a mountain athlete. Each week, Sarah will teach you practical strategies to overcome self-doubt, deal with training setbacks, save time, and stay happy and healthy through the long training season. Sarah earned her high altitude mountaineering certificate from Colorado Mountain Club in 2017 at age 41 and has since summited peaks in Bolivia, Ecuador, Mexico, and the USA, including Mount Rainier. She's also completed six (and counting) ultramarathons. She's living, breathing proof that you don't need to be 22 and have 6% body fat to be an endurance athlete. On this podcast, she shares her no-nonsense advice on fitness, (un)diet, motivation, and self belief to help you train for your goal. It's a mix of interviews and solo jam sessions you won't want to miss. So subscribe and get ready to blow your own mind.
Climb Your Mountain
Why waiting around for a better time always backfires
"I'll start that business ... just as soon as things calm down."
"It'll be easier to get my masters ... once my littles are in school."
"I'm going to bike across the wine region of Italy ... just as soon as I retire!"
Have you ever put off a dream because you're waiting for a better time?
You're not alone.
So many of my clients are waiting for "the right time" to start creating their FY life.
But what if "the right time" never comes?
What if "normal life" isn't some magic calm period that always comes back around if we hang on long enough?
What if "normal life" is actually your car breaking down, a surprise work trip, your dog needing surgery, your small volunteer commitment morphing into a full-time job, and your landlord doubling the rent ... possibly all at once?
When we let go of the fantasy that life will calm down, it's easier to jump NOW. (Which let's be honest, is almost always the best time.)
And in this week's episode of the Climb Your Mountain podcast, I show you exactly why moving faster is usually better — and what you can do to take that scary first step.
Enjoy!
