Round 1 with movement specialist Lawrence van Lingen changed thousands of runners' lives. In this new conversation, we explore how runners get unstuck, how breath creates instant change, and how elite performers use awareness and play to find breakthroughs.

Lawrence wrote an incredible foreword for my new book Running Breakthroughs that just launched. It's available as audiobook, hardcover, paperback and ebook on my site https://florisgierman.com (with bonuses and bundles) and Amazon worldwide (https://geni.us/running-breakthroughs)
