I've been struggling a bit with motivation recently so I've been making plans to meet up with people. This also ticks off things for my CBT homework so its a win win situation. Today I went to meet Ali and her friend Louise for their regular tuesday evening run. I cycled over there, it was a harder ride than expected as the ring road was closed so I ended up heading up to Scout Road which was a hard climb then along to Chorley Old Road, still I was in time and had the bike locked up by the time they got there. The run was enjoyable, I was relegated to running behind incase I went too fast. It was a really steady pace which was nice.

You did 100 miles the other day. How can you possibly be lacking motivation?
ReplyDeleteI had motivation for that I was going to meet kate!
ReplyDeleteAnd there I was thinking it was just for the cake!
ReplyDeleteCan't blame you for not feeling motivated with your weather. Nice work, Trio, to get out anyway. Meeting people always helps.
ReplyDeletewish i was as motivated as you re. exercise.
ReplyDeleteSometimes you just have to make yourself do it. I make myself go out for 10mins and then if I'm still hating it I can come home. Usually it seems fun by that point as the endorphins are kicking in!
ReplyDeletethat sound like a good mind trick -just 10mins- i'll be using that one tonight i think ;)
ReplyDelete...and if I want to go home by the time I've got home I've still done 20minutes. I think its why I can never get on with treadmills I can't get myself through that 10minutes.
