In this episode of Running to the Castle you’ll learn 5 Signs You’re Going to Not Finish Dopey.

These signs include

Bought 3 new pairs of shoes in the past 6 monthsSomething hurts every time you run 8 miles or moreYou’re pushing to keep that 15’30” pace on every runYou’re setting a new PR every long runYou’re doing more strength exercises now to fix an injury

I want you to be aware of these signs because you may not have all 5, but if you have 1 or more and it’s early in training season you can quickly adjust to lower your chances of not finishing, and improve your chances of finishing Dopey.
