Running for you

I'm running a 10 k race today, thinking of you rookies.

If you keep it up, you'll run 10 k races too in 2010.

It's fun.

people cheer for you and you get a medal.

What's not to like?

SO PROUD OF YOU

Can't stress this enough: THE FIRST KILOMETER IS THE HARDEST.

It took me personally 36 years to get started with running. And once I'd taken it up I think it took a month or two before I pulled off the non-walking kilometer.

You're all moving fast!

It's Monday

Are you ready for this week?

This week, the KILOMETER.

This week, you will run 1000 meters without stopping. I'm not saying you will love it, I'm saying you can do it. And afterwards, you will love yourself.

It doesn't have to be fast. In fact, don't try to be fast. Just try do do it without switching to walking.

Tell me once you've made it. I love hearing about your progress. It might not be a huge step for mankind, but it is for you and me!

Also, if you're not getting your running in, tell me why and I might be able to help boost motivation.

Why you'll eventually love running outdoors

Running heightens your perception. You get a better sense of smell, vision, taste and feeling during your run. This is to your advantage running outside, not so much so on the treadmill.
