Glad you had an awesome workout – thats what makes everything worth it

what motivates me? changes every day. sometimes its a song on the iPod, the fact that I woke up Before my 5 a.m. alarm (love that feeling!), signing up for the next event, or my “runners world quote of the day” email. Just to name a few! AND reading kick ass bloggers keeps me goin most of the time too! haha

I like this one because it shows that we can push ourselves without even having to worry about it. Once you have hit your max distance, turn around and run back home.

“Grip It and Rip It.” -Hanzel, from the movie ‘Zoolander’

I like this one is because we tend to over think things too much (Hanzel wasn’t much of a thinker), especially with work outs and races. Stop worrying about what you ate the night before or how tired you are. None of that has any bearing on your race performance once you toe the line. It is what it is. All you can do is perform you best. You can’t worry about things that you can no longer control. All you can do is learn from them and move on. Negative thinking has never helped anyone.
