This is for you if...
You’ve ever thought, “Maybe I’m just not a real runner.”
- You’ve got your trainers on, but the thought of being seen is louder than the urge to go.
- You finish a run feeling good, then a pace number makes you feel slow.
- You need to walk or change the plan and wonder if you’ve failed again.
- Running has to fit around work, family and the rest of your actual life.
How Mind Your Run helps
Start where you are. See what you can do.
Mind Your Run is growing with the people testing it. Here’s how it can help you begin — and what I’m working on next.
Company when it counts
Walking is part of your run if that’s what you need. Kindness with Katie audio pep talks are there for the moments your mind says “I can’t”.
Proof you showed up
Record how a run felt so you can look back at what running gives you and notice what changes over time.
“
When my brain said, “You can’t do it,” I found it helped to look at what I’d already done and think, “Actually, the evidence suggests I can.”
— Katie McDonald, founder and author of Just Start
Good to know
Questions before you begin?
Where has Mind Your Run come from?
I wrote Just Start: The Beginner Running Pep Talk I Needed because nobody talks enough about one of the hardest parts of starting running: your own mind and your inner critic.
I couldn’t believe the positive response it received. But I wanted to turn that idea into something people like you and me could actually use — not just a book you put down and think, “What now?”
That’s why I built Mind Your Run. I’m so excited to keep adding to it and make starting running feel far less intimidating, far more doable and far more en-JOY-able.
I posted on Facebook asking whether anyone would be interested in testing it and, overnight, I had 206 emails on a spreadsheet. I couldn’t believe it! At the time of writing, it’s in iOS testing and I’m working on Android too.
Let’s make getting out of the door feel possible.
Does signing up start a free trial?
No. This form asks me to email you access to the free testing version. It doesn’t create an app account or start billing.
Do I need to be able to run 5K already?
No. Mind Your Run is being shaped for beginners, especially those who find the mental side of starting difficult.
Which phones can currently test it?
Testing is currently open on iPhone through TestFlight. Android testing is being arranged as quickly as possible. Select your phone in the form and I’ll make sure you receive the right details.
Where can I stay updated?
