I started training a little over a month ago for a marathon in november, I have never been a runner! I love sports and have been in them my entire life but I have never been a runner and have always hated it. Lately it is so hard to keep myself on track to keep running. I have decided that it would be better for me to run a half marathon first then start for a full marathon. But its been so hard to keep myself going by myself. What is everyones motivation to run and workout? I am usually on schedule with working out, but i just came back from a weeks vacation and it is so hard to go!

    I have always had the desire to run but once me knee starts aching I go back to walking. For running tips go to fitnessmagazine. com.

    Why do you feel like you have to do something you hate? Aren't there other activities that you like to do that will offer you some exercise?

    there are other cardio options than running. it's difficult to find motivation for something you dont like. But if you want, you can add me, I love running :)
