Monday Motivation


This past week I had the pleasure of being able to leave the girls with family who love them and get in some great seaside miles!  My body had some great workouts...up and down ocean cliffs...past mansions...along the beach...around a old familiar track, but my mind got a workout too!  This week my goal is to stop beating myself up for the weight I have not yet lost...for the pace I have not yet reached...and just work!  This week is all about reminding myself that those paces are going to come....only if I put in the work to get there!  Heat wave or not...you better watch out week because you are MINE!!!
What do you need to convince your mind of this week?  Hot where you are?

  1. I need to convince my mind that I can stay away from running for a little bit longer to follow my PT orders! :)

  2. I need to convince myself that I can find the time I want + the time I need to get everything done if I look hard enough. It might mean setting the alarm a bit earlier... but I can do it!

  4. Glad you had a chance to get away like that! You sound recharged and ready to go.

  7. So true and my mind is a tough sell! So hot but more importantly so 100 %humidity! It's tough for running.

  8. I need to convince my mind that 2 days of 10-12 hours driving in the car with my family won't be that bad!!!

  9. It has been hot here in Cali for the past couple of months but it isn't going to stop me. I have to work 5 days this week and I was dragging this morning but I am determined to make it a great week. I love your attitude and I can't wait to hear how your week goes!

  10. This humidity stinks. I am working on not blaming my slower pace on me, but the fact that I need to be conscious of my sweating too. I am also still trying to lose baby weight (two years later) but I know that I am living a healthy lifestyle and it will come.

  11. It's not hot here now, but I think when you wrote this, it was in the 100s here! We had a couple of really hot days and of course it was on the weekends of my long runs! However, this weekend was foggy and cool, a nice treat!
