LOVE this motivational tip from the article:*Recite "Boom-chaka-lacka-lacka boom-chaka-lacka-lacka boom." Lie there on the couch in a T-shirt and running shoes and say it like you mean it. You don't have to "feel" like going for a run. You don't have to "be strong" to get out there. You only have to lie there like a slob and chant this loudly. It's like a magic spell. Someone will walk into the room and literally throw you from the house, and when you land on the road, you might as well get a run in.0

Great article!
"If you do this right, you'll be one forever. The day you stop calling yourself a newbie is the day you stop exploring."
I like this.
I'm finally feeling like a runner myself and still think of myself as a newbie. Sometimes I'm even a tiny titch uncertain about being a runner yet (although I know deep down that I am one now). I hope now that I always think of myself as a newbie.0 -
Really nice article. I love the concept of 'inner newbie'!0
