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? Re: How do I get the motivation to start running for a Marathon? - Sukey - 01-26-2011 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..

Re: How do I get the motivation to start running for a Marathon? - Johnnie - 01-26-2011 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 |
