Monday Motivation

One thing that I have learned about myself is that I will rise to whatever is around me.  If people are running at a 10 min mile pace around me, then so will I...if they are running 8s, so will I...if they lift heavy, so will I...and so on.  Some of my fastest races have been while I was running with my running group and keeping up with them as we wound around our town!  They are fast...and I was NOT going to let them leave me behind!!  I am the type of person who needs the bar set high...the gauntlet thrown...the challenge put out there!  Set your own bar high.  Don't limit what amazing things you can achieve when you put the challenge out there!!! 
What are you going to challenge yourself to do this week?

    Love the set the bar higher image! I'm raising the bar by finishing the last 3 weeks of 90 days of P90X3 and then adding a 4th day of running into my weekly plan (Disclaimer: if the weather cooperates.).

    I am going to challenge myself to get to bed earlier. Poor sleep is affecting my training :(

    My challenge this week is to not let the lure of sugary snacks get to me. I also want to get to class 6 times this week!

    Love this! Setting the bar high for sure. Sometimes I shy away because I'm afraid of failure. But I'm setting my bar high for my June 1/2 marathon. And I will crush it!
