How do I get the motivation to start running for a Marathon? - Lottie - 01-26-2011

Hi, I don't really do any sports but for some reason I really enjoy jogging/running. I'm only 15 But would like to start training for a Marathon, the only problem is I don't have a whole lot of motivation to do all this training. Anything I can do to get myself motivated?

Just run.... you said you would like to start training... that's motivation... run... break past that first barrier of starting and go from there..

Yep.. U really need to read about it.. and get
come type of incentive ..
U need to have a cause or a reason.. one that
is constructive..

do it for your health,,, because U wanna look
good and trim.. for an organization,,

But like loosing weight or stop smoking.. it is
all MIND over MATTER...

Get a partner interested w/ ya.. or make a bet
on it.. go several times before stopping.. U will
meet people along the way ... who could possibly
encourage you.. Good luck
