#020 - What I learned about building habits running 13.1 miles for 66 Days
Description
Pierce Showe shares his experience running a half marathon every day on a treadmill for 66 consecutive days while attempting to break the Guinness World Record of 125 days. He reveals three crucial lessons about habit formation that have transformed his approach to consistency and performance.
• Make habit execution as easy as possible through checklists, preparation, and optimizing your environment
• Harness the unmatched power of accountability by telling others about your goals and commitments
• Focus on progress over months rather than day-to-day changes for better motivation and perspective
• Pierce has improved from an 8:40 pace to 7:15-7:30 pace over two months while feeling better than when he started
• The current record is 125 consecutive days of half marathons, and Pierre aims for over 150 days
• Proper nutrition, recovery, and sleep are essential components of Pierce's success strategy
Implement these strategies in your own life: make your habits easier to follow, find accountability partners, and measure progress over longer time periods rather than daily.
