Well, it's again time for me to get my butt into shape. I obviously want to look the BEST I can for my October wedding, but I'm SO bad about working out. I have zero motivation to work out on my own. Zip, zilch, none. In order to start working out, I always need an end goal in mind to force myself to work out, so this year I decided to do the Broad Street Run. Well let's step back - some of my friends decided to do the run, and I reluctantly agreed:)
This is a 10 mile run that starts at Temple University, then you run through Center City and end at the stadiums in South Philly. I know I'm capable of doing the run, because I used to run cross country in high school, but I'm SO embarassingly out of shape right now. I've been going to the gym at 6am a few days a week for the past 3 weeks, and MAN, all of the sudden I am DRAGGING and it is such a struggle to just run 25 minutes! I'm hoping it's just a bad week - does anyone else just have weeks where you can't get going and working out is a huge struggle?
I have to keep the training schedule plastered right next to my computer to keep myself going:)
And here are all of the PSU girls that are doing the run - thank god you are all doing it with me, because knowing you're all working out keeps me motivated to get up at 6am to run!
I'm excited to do the run because it will be awesome to do it with all of these girls, but I'll be honest, I'm not looking forward to it. When it's a struggle to run 25 minutes, I keep wondering how I'll get up to 10 miles! Hopefully next week is a better work out week...
