1) It's not fun--if getting in shape was fun, would anyone be out of shape?
2) I don't want everyone looking at me--you're running and they're NOT!
3) No time--Ten minutes, really? You probably spent that much time yesterday with the remote.
4) Got the kids with me all day--wake up earlier. Would you honestly miss 10 minutes of sleep?
5) No place to run--run early at the mall, in the backyard or even in the garage. It's better than nothing.
6) No running shoes--come on. Ten minutes in Keds won't kill you, although Nikes do feel good.
7) Side cramps--try talking to yourself while you run. Don't know why, but it works for me.
8) I'm not fast enough--this is not a competition. Don't worry, you'll be faster next week.
9) My hair!--that's what baseball caps are for.
10) Chapped thighs--use Vaseline, or if you love high-tech and paying a lot more, Body Glide.
Problems are solved, so lace up!
Thanks Stacy I did do 10 minutes today my hips were sore but I kept Going, I think I will go over to pioneer high school and use there track :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat Marjorie. Pioneer track is a good idea and it's so close by.
ReplyDeleteI was Thinking That it was a good Idea, I Was What Shoes are Best for Running, I have some New Balance and some Sketcher Shapeups ?
DeleteI always recommend whatever feels the best--that's how I pick my shoes out. I've never run in Sketchers so I'm not sure about them and have had mild success with New Balance. I'm a diehard Nike fan.
