    get dressed in your workout clothes. putz around the house as long as you'd like, do those little chores that you never do but now all of a sudden you have to do. those dishes in the sink that can wait until later? do them now.

    but eventually you'll find that you can't delay any longer, and you'll realize that you're in your work out clothes and that you didn't get dressed for nothing.

    I don't wanna go to work everyday, but I still suck it up and do it. I look at running the same way, it's just something I have to do whether I feel up to it that day or not.

    never once have I regretted it and I promise you won't either!

    I have to run in a couple of hours. I am tired, i will have a house guest staying with me tonight and for the next few days. I have to take my child to competitions all weekend long, this work week has been so draining a d stressful, and it's raining. The feeling of not wanting to run will not go away for me. I will run at six though, and at seven I'll be glad I did.

    The longer you put it off, the more you'll beat yourself up about it. The more you beat yourself up about it, the more likely you are to end up at Wendy's with a Frosty and french fries. If you end up at Wendy's with a Frosty and french fries, you have to hide the evidence in that dumpster down the road. When you go to the dumpster down the road, you get garbage on your shoes and make your car smell really bad. When your car smells really bad, you have to go to Walmart. When you go to Walmart, you get mugged in the parking lot.

    Don't get mugged in the parking lot at Walmart.

    Go for a run.

    Here's what my GF is doing:

    She told me, her room mate, and her parents she started doing cardio kickboxing.

    Everyday she's supposed to go, I ask if she went.

    She's realizing how many excuses she's come up with before, the last time she said "I couldn't make any excuse to tell you, so I went."

    She says she's been enjoying it. But she's still freaking lazy... (—_— )

    Step 1 - sign up for a race
    Step 2 - Get Your Butt Out There! That race is going to be miserable unless you put in your training time.

    ^^^Pro tip.
