Hi, my name is Brian Groot.  I am a ultra marathon runner and yoga teacher from London, Ontario.  My goal in creating Mindfulness Running is to unite running and yoga into an integrated training program which will guide endurance athletes in achieving their goals both physically and spiritually, at the same time. 

I am committed to sharing my experience and knowledge that I have gained over the last few years of running with those that have set goals and are seeking a path towards achieving them.  Mindfulness Running is about more than just completing a distance or setting a new personal best; it is about learning from your mind and body by being a witness to their interdependence as you focus inwards, allowing your body to work at a level that is right for you.   

In Brian's Blog you can follow all the adventures and races I have done and how my own training is going.  I am also gradually add more resources such as training plans for various skill levels and distance goals.  I will also add some helpful summaries of basic yogic and buddhist philosophies I wish to incorperate into the training program. 

I encourage you to create an account to see some of the extra content on training and send me an email to get signed for the newsletter.   This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
