Get Faster
they say if you want to get faster, you have to run with people faster than you.
so let me introduce you to phil.
if you’ve lined up next to him, you already know. the guy moves. effortless speed, the kind that makes you question your own pace and then quietly try to match it. and now he’s taking all of that and pouring it back into the rest of us, leading tempo thursdays at prime.
that’s the part that hits different.
because speed like phil’s could’ve stayed selfish. he could’ve just clocked his splits and left everybody else to figure it out. instead he’s turning his gift into everybody’s gain. showing up to make the whole pack faster. that’s not just a fast runner. that’s a leader.
and here’s what we’ve learned out here on the road. they tell you if you want to go fast, go alone. if you want to go far, go together. but running rewrites that. because when you go together, you go fast AND far. you find gears you didn’t know you had because someone ahead of you refused to let you settle. you chase, you stretch, you grow.
speed isn’t just physical. it’s contagious. one fast runner pulls the whole pack forward. one person believing you can hit that next level makes you believe it too.
so if you want to get faster, you know what to do. find the ones who push you. run with people who make you reach.
and on thursdays, you run tempo with phil.
let’s get fast. together. 🖤🪶
