Motivation – just do it!
OK, so who watched American Idol last night?!
AH-FREAKING-MAZING!!!! I love that show!! This is by far the best year yet.. they are all just SO TALENTED!! Stefano ROCKED his song, Lauren totally owned her performance and she can most definitely can sing it better than Miley Cyrus. Casey totally believed in himself and look where it took him.. SO GOOD! I guess it would be easier for me to just say who my least favorite is… Paul McDonald. His vocals and performances don’t do much for me compared to the others.
Obviously we can’t forget to mention that People magazine named Jennifer Lopez the WORLD’S MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. I think we all could have told them that a long time ago, no? She is absolutely STUNNING!!! How can someone be so incredibly beautiful!? B!@*#!! Just joking… I love her. No, really, I do. I’m sure if we all had a team to “put us together” everyday, we could look like that too.

Everyday, I wake up really early. Most of the time I have no problem although tired has been my middle name these past few weeks and today was a fight to get up. I had already decided that I was going to get an early run in because the rest of the day is busy and I’m going to be sitting on a bus for 7 hours tomorrow. Awesome, I know.
I was so excited for my run:
don't judge k... it was early.
GMan thought my enthusiasm was worth documenting, for the blog of course.
Trying to pump myself up…fake running and all.
Showing my guns off for GMan. So big, I know.
He was quite impressed……….
I literally forced myself out the door and I’m SO glad I did!!
I knew that I would feel soooo much better after my run. Even on the days you don’t feel like getting out to the gym or for a run, most days it’s so worth the extra push because you will feel so good and proud of yourself afterwards!! I LOVE running EARLY in the morning.
Even though for about the first 8km I was trying to make excuses as to why I should cut it short and head home, I actually had a pretty good run! My legs were a bit sore but I was able to get in 1:05 hr/12.51 km and it felt great!

If you haven’t already done so you should go and send Janae some love. She has been training her heart out for Boston and is now unable to run it due to a femoral stress fracture. I was soo sad for her when I read her news. I can only imagine the disappointment and sadness. She is wicked cool, so positive and inspiring to so many people!!

– YES!
What or who is your motivator when you’re lacking motivation to get out the door!?
-Myself and my family. Sometimes I tell GMan to push me out the door, tell me I’m a fatty and to get running (he doesn’t say that though :) ), do whatever it takes when I need the extra push. On days when I’m tired, I “positive talk” myself because I know I can do it.
