    I have so many, but my current favorites are:

    People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing. That’s why we recommend it daily. –Zig Ziglar

    There are no traffic jams along the extra mile. –Roger Staubach

    Whenever you see a successful person you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them. ~Vaibhav Shah

    ETA:

    Remember to breathe! (myself during any run)

    These are great!

    Moderation, moderation, moderation..

    Suck it up, b!+ch..

    You get what you get and you don't get upset

    Stop overstriding (I used to do that a lot walking and I have problems with shoulders, back, knees etc)

    Don't forget your headphones when you shovel snow

    I've been fairly partial to:
    I'll beat my *kitten* today to kick yours tomorrow.

    It keeps me punching the bag when my shoulders are already tapping out and asking to go get ice cream.

    I power walk and recently read....."Run like you are being chased." Now I walk as if I am being chased.

    When I even think about quitting my walk less than 5 miles I repeat to myself " You do not quit until you are done." Keeps me going every time.
