Dreamofillusions Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 Hi Just about to start the course again. Will be trying to fit a run in in the morning, so am looking for some help to stay motivated and some accountability! It's dark and cold and there are too many reasons to not run, but I want to!!!

Maz Posted December 24, 2019 Report Share Posted December 24, 2019 I actually enjoy it when it’s cold as nasty, gives me motivation to move. That is assuming I get up and out of bed! Haha there in lies the challenge. Couple weeks into the 10K and looking to do a half marathon in May. Brutally out of shape and getting my butt kicked. Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamofillusions Posted December 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2019 Well I went, not as early as it will be once school starts again but it's an attempt to get in to a routine before then, and it was more of a slow shuffle than a run.....but I went. And it was glorious!! IZ+ZY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamofillusions Posted December 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 That's twice! Am so enjoying shuffling in the morning. It was wet and cold this morning but so fresh and clean. No shuffle tomorrow but I'm still going to head out early... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamofillusions Posted December 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2019 Went again today. Worried about what will happen when work starts again but am going to keep trying! Cocoasmom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timb113 Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 Haven't seen an update in a while, I'm hoping you kept the motivation after getting back to work. I actually went the opposite, I don't know why. I didn't get out much during the break, but have gotten back to early mornings now that I'm back to work and kids are back in school. If you ever have trouble motivating when it's nasty out, I think about a meme, I think ZenLabs may have posted a while back that read something like: Running your normal route in the rain makes you feel like a complete bad ass. I had some rain pick up this morning, late in my shuffle, and I used it as motivation. Keep up the good work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha Damn!! I will make excuses when it's crappy out!! It's tough enough to run when it's "just cold" outside, let alone nasty too!! I'm also brutally out of shape, starting with the c25k, then I'll move on to 10k, and my ultimate goal for 2020? A half marathon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
