Before After

a partner in crime

I wish I had a running partner.
 
This has been an emotional journey for me, and I wish I had someone next to me to distract me from the noise inside my head.  There are definite benefits to pulling myself up by the bootstraps and relying solely on myself to get through a workout, to making it out the door for a run, etc.  It would just be easier/more fun if I could share the experience with someone sometimes.
 
I went to a seminar last night about how to get your brain on track with the running you are doing.  Ever heard it said that running is so much more a mental thing than a physical thing?  So true!  I'm working on the positive affirmations and other things to help my running time be more enjoyable and productive. 
 
The seminar leader recommended a book for me to read based on some of the thoughts I have to fight through.  I picked it up last night and hope to read it soon.

Don't give up!

We've all had those moments when you need to exercise, but find other reasons to put it off.  


Remember that each day is a new day. Does it have to be running?  Can you start out walking briskly instead?  Just do something each day....
