Working out.
Ugh, even hearing the words makes me wince in pain. Being an ex-swimmer, I have definitely worked out more than one should in a life time. Recently, though, I have realized that when I am not training for something, I lose all motivation. Why? Working out just to work out SUCKS. News flash: no one enjoys sweating a ton and feeling like they are dying just for the heck of it. Sorry, even if you say that you love that "runner's high", I say you're full of shit. (Really, sorry if that is offensive, it's just my own lazy-ass opinion). You look gross, you feel nasty, it's just not a good time for anyone.
There have been countless days when I've been like "Okay, starting tomorrow, I'm going to get in a morning run 4 days a week." At the end of the school year, I was decent at starting and sticking to this. Once I get into a routine, I actually don't mind it. It's just getting to that routine that is difficult. I was going to go run this morning, but I am not feeling that well (classic excuse, I know), and with starting a job in 6 days, I do want to rest up. But now that I am feeling a lot better today, I want to start tomorrow.
Which is why I AM PUTTING THIS IN WRITING. It is officially out in the universe. World, tomorrow morning I am going on a run or to the health club!! (Depending on what the weather allows me to do). Quote me. Push me. Hold me accountable!
Tomorrow. I. Am. Going. To. Go. For. A. Run. And. That. Is. That.
