I’m going to be honest, I couldn’t get out the door yesterday. Part because my body was sore and felt like it needed rest (so I listened!) but part because I was lacking motivation. There was an easy switch by taking the planned rest for today, having it yesterday and hitting the pavement for my run today.
I did some foam rolling last night but just in case I was still lacking motivation, I thought we’d have another round of Thursday Thoughts, Running Motivation.

I don’t know about you, but I’m heading out the door!
What gets you motivated?
Good tunes and new workout gear alway get me going! Of course, right now, just being able to squat would be motivation enough to do more! Lol I CAN’T WAIT until I’m finally done with PT and can get back out there! Just do me a favor and remind me NEVER to complain about workouts again! 😉
First of all, I’ll hold you to that last comment. 😉 Second, GET BETTER! You have to be back on your feet for Blend!
Love fitness quotes and these are some good ones!
Have you seen that we have a bit of sun today?!?! Now, that’s motivation!! I feel like it’s been a week since the sun has been out.
Oh man! This burst of sun has been freaking INCREDIBLE!
I love the one about competing with yourself rather than with others!
That’s a tough one for me – whether in a race or just at the gym. And I’ve never thought of myself as an overly competitive person!
New music and new workout clothes get me motivated! Which….is probably not so good for my wallet, though! 😉
Oh man, I get it!
Love all those quotes. I can be motivated by preparing for races or a particular social event I may have coming up or if I set general fitness goals. In the last 2 weeks my motivation has been quite off as work has been full on so I totally understand where you are coming from.
