Motivation Monday

I woke up in a mediocre mood today, because you know… Monday. It was raining, which was actually a great thing but on a Monday, it just felt blah. The time passed by quickly throughout the day, and I didn’t really get around to walking at work either. In the instance that I didn’t get to catch my walk at work, a negative thought and albeit lazy thought entered my mind that I would get stuck in the same rut I got stuck in last year around the same time. The time change, and the weather makes it super difficult for me to get outside to run. Thankfully, I took that thought and kicked it in the butt. I vowed myself that I was going to go to gym before I went home.

Applies to all workouts – It just helps untangle that web in your mind.

I went to the gym for the first time in a couple months, got on the elliptical for 20 min, and the treadmill for 30. It was such a short but effective workout. I didn’t run because I have a run in the morning, but I got my heart rate higher than normal. I got home with a ton of energy, and it completely changed my day and mood. It’s amazing how just moving your body and finding that motivation to just go can change everything.
