Why is running now a chore?
Is getting older really that good of an excuse? Really?

I'm fed up with wishing for better endurance and then going and reading a book in stead of actually getting out and doing something about it.
So, Self, listen up! I now demand you run 1/2 mile everyday, to the best of your ability. And work on those skinny arms, soldier! Winter's coming and you can barely lift a five gallon bucket of water, let along carry it, you sissy!

Sometimes I have to be my own motivator sergeant-major.
The first day was painful, but today getting out there felt great, plus I ran twice as far. It's like my body is remembering how good it feels to outrun all the boys my age. Ha. I'm a long way from that, but I'm on my way.
Fall is the time to remake priorities. What are yours?

Haha! Love this post ;)
ReplyDeleteFor me, my priorities are school, family and miscellaneous stuff :)
I know exactly how you feel! I have been rather lethargic lately, and I don't know how many countless times I have set up exercise schedules for myself in the past.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new regiment! :)
"I don't prescribe running this early in your recovery, sir."
ReplyDeleteIt's nice that you have a place to run. Where I live, though it's quite enough, it isn't safe to run. Also, you have loads of turf, which I do not, and asphalt has never been kindly to my spinal column.
Keep it up, soldier! You don't want to get et!
I should probably take up on your newest motivation. Me and running just don't mix. At all. I'm a strategic planner...not a doer of my wonderful plans. Lol
ReplyDeleteYeah....I feel the same way. School has definitely thinned my arms up and I've barely done anything outside. :( :( How sad, and I thought I was tough. I think I'm going to have to do the same thing as you.
ReplyDeleteAre you doing Nanowrimo this year? I am for the first time, so that will be a huge priority. Though my parents have reserved rights to pull the plug on it if my studies suffer...
Good for you! I started running when we started school in September. So far so good. I just hate it when it's cold though. :( Keep it up!

Ah! I love to run! I haven't had much of the chance to lately though, or to read a book. :P
