Show Notes
Creating a lifestyle of fitness that supports preventative health and longevity requires a shift in how we think about movement.
In this episode, Lauren is joined by Heather Abrahamson, Co-Owner of Training Ground Gym (Lafayette CO), Trainer, and Run Coach, for a grounded conversation about sustainable fitness, running and family wellness. Heather brings her experience coaching runners and training everyday athletes to explain why burnout happens so often—and how to avoid it.
This episode is a reminder that fitness doesn’t need to be extreme to be effective—it needs to be consistent, supportive, and life-giving.
In this episode, we explore:
- What it means to train for life, not just events
- Why variety, planning, and accountability prevent burnout
- How strength and mobility training support runners and joint health
- Why running isn’t for everyone—and how to start running safely if it is for you
- How to build a family culture around movement and nourishment
- Simple daily choices that add up to better long-term wellness
