Motivation for runners

We all need a little motivation to run sometimes. It doesn't matter whether you are a new runner or a seasoned pro, some days you just don't feel it. The frustrating thing is that you KNOW that you will feel so great when you finish! Try saving one of these images to your phone's lock screen or use it as wallpaper on your computer - it may motivate you to get out there an run. I like to collect images of beautiful landscapes and imagine myself running in them and every once in a … [Read more...]

Running away from depression

Depression is a topic I have wanted to speak about for a long while now.  I have touched on it in my other blogs but really want to give it a different slant now that I have found, for me, the right balance. In less than a year I have turned my mental health around and I really want to write this post for all of you out there who battle with what is STILL a bit of a taboo subject.         Are you stuck?  Do you have trouble sleeping?  Do you feel like … [Read more...]

Finding motivation for running

I was inspired to write this post today after going out on a long training run.  I got thinking about motivation for a long whilst out running - I took my dog out for the first 6 miles of it and he really gave me food for thought.  He never needs motivation to go out there and run with me, he loves it.  As soon as he sees his lead he is raring to go.  He doesn't need any encouragement, he lives in the moment.

Reasons to Run

Why I Run Running doesn't care..... If your sneakers are clean. If you have make up on. If you are depressed. If the sun is shining. If you had a bad day at work. If you got a parking fine. If you failed an exam. If your boss got mad at you. If you don't like your mother-in-law. If you don't follow a religion. If your thighs rub together. If you are dressed in the latest kit. If you are slower than dial-up broadband. If you are the CEO of Apple or unemployed. If you suck at … [Read more...]
