Welcome to Day 3 of the Running Reignited Challenge!

You're halfway through—and today’s focus is a big one.

We’ve already explored:

✅ WHO you are as a runner right now and who you have been
✅ WHAT is really going on in your body after 40 and what kind of training works best for women in this season

And now it’s time to ask:

📍 WHERE Is Your Strength and Energy Coming From?

…and where is your energy leaking away without you even realizing it?

If you’ve been relying on cardio alone to stay fit, energized, or lean…
If you’ve noticed slower paces, more fatigue, or nagging injuries…
You’re not doing anything wrong.

You’re just missing a key piece of the puzzle.

Strength and muscle are now the foundation of your energy and performance.
Without them, everything else—endurance, recovery, metabolism, even your mindset—becomes harder than it needs to be.

• Are you eating before your runs or strength sessions
• How soon after waking do you eat?
• Do you get hangry, have cravings, or skip meals?

💥 Why strength and muscle matter now more than ever
💥 Where most runners are losing energy and slowing down
💥 Where strength training needs to live in your routine
💥 Where under-fueling may be sabotaging your recovery, metabolism, and performance

Your self-check,

✨ Where did you feel strong—and where do you feel a gap?
✨ Are you supporting your strength through fueling… or unknowingly sabotaging it?
