How to START Running (& make it a habit) // tips from a beginner who HATED it 😫

I HATED running, but now I love it?! I set a goal for myself to run a total of 750km this year, which is HELLA KRAZY. In this video, I'll be sharing some of the things I did as a beginner in order to become a runner. I'll start by giving some context about me, then I'll share tips and resources that I found helpful.

We talk a lot about investing in different assets, but this is a gentle reminder to take care of yourself as well and invest in your health 😄✨

How to Start RUNNING (& make it a habit) // tips from a beginner who HATED it 😫

[NicoleAlbaYT]

I fell in love with running last year, so I wanted to share some of the things I learned in case you guys also want to start running. We talk a lot about investing in different assets, but this is a gentle reminder to take care of yourself as well and invest in your health 😄✨

[eddiebrock]

I love how organized these videos are. It makes it easier to go back and rewatch everything. And, man! The transitions are always on point!

[RiAS___]

You inspired me to run this year. I have been running 3x week now, mwf because of you. Thank you for this video!

[tempzira]

Hi nicole! I've been a fan since you started making videos and have learned a lot from it. I'm genuinely curious if you know any easy way to get a credit report or to even know one's credit score. I'm always getting denied for credit card applications and I'm worried it has something to do with my credit history. And I think it's a good topic for you to cover since you're a financial guru 😉. Lots of love! Thank you! 😊

[JustineAprilJ]

Nicoooole! Idk if you remember but I commented on your last running video na I hated running esp as a 4'10 girl! But you inspired me to run - I downloaded Nike Run Club because of you and I started this week! 🥰🍞

[NegosyoManila]

This is one of my favorite channels on YouTube! 💯💖 I wanna let you know that you are doing a real great job! Every second watching your video is worth my time and I loved it! Fully watched!🥰

[andrewdomingo]

Very motivating. My running plans are always staying in my head. It's really time to materialize them.

[Jeff-wrmm]

You are an inspiration nicole! You got to work on this weaknesses diba? I hate running din, it sucks. Pero sabi nga "do something that sucks" and you'll be grateful the rest of the day 💪

[CRono-ztfv]

I joined a virtual race bc of your vid last time. I've been consistently running the whole month of January but starting to get lazy recently. This video is a good motivation haha

[krishnacayabyab]

Hi Nicole, I ran and finished my first ever 10K Run (virtual or non virtual) ever using PF👍 I have not run before but now I run every other day inspired by your vids on running💕 I run because I like doing something that I can finish and be proud once done, and lately at work I have been doing something that cant be done anytime soon and it's frustrating. So doing this helps me cross out something done and be proud👍

[saijuneiglesias]

Thanks Nicole for uploading again! This is so inspiring. I hope I could get back to running again. My night shift work makes it difficult to adjust since I was in the morning shift for couple of years. Bless U more. :) 💙

[Jammersgo]

find your sole mate, can't wait to hear about your first marathon video in the future. :) hope they bring back the bull runner dream marathon coz there's nothing like your first.

[kiaralim]

[kelde]

[KenoPotato]

Thanks Nicole! Seeing your goal setting video last month motivated me to set running goals too :))

[codeunbox]

"You know abs are made in the kitchen, right?" 🤣

[markrichardmasdo]

Ma'am gawa ka nga po videos kung pano po gumawa or mag set goal para po sarili .. nahhirapan po Kasi po Kasi gumawa ng goal ehh .. thank you and God bless po 😇

[jtombe]

you're so cool... I hope my daughter has a mindset like you...

[ItzShanii]

I am that type of person that you mentioned na madalas sa 1st week lang talaga consistent sa nasimulang exercise 😆. Thank you sa mga tips and advices mo na feeling ko applicable sa akin. Hope to start exercising again once na lumuwag sched. Thank talagaaa.

[vxllvxn]
