Hey there, friend, it's Coach Christine here with a little holiday cheer just for you. As the year wraps up, I couldn't let this magical season pass without popping in to share my gratitude and let you know what's coming up next on Extraordinary Strides. Let's be real. This time of year can feel a bit like running an ultra, with sleigh bells on right, between the gift wrapping, holiday parties, family traditions and maybe squeezing in a frosty run or two. Life gets busy and yet here you are showing up, doing your best and making strides, big and small, and I just want to say I see you. I hope you'll take a moment to breathe in the magic of the season. Maybe it's a brisk jog through a neighborhood full of twinkling lights, or maybe it's just a quiet moment with a cup of cocoa. Whatever it looks like for you, give yourself that gift, because you have earned it. Now. I've got some exciting things coming up in 2025, and I can't wait to share them with you all.
