Where do you find your motivation?

Motivation....sometimes it is just the little push you need to get yourself to put on your running sneakers and head out the door.  Sometimes you need someone/something in your face to tell that little voice in your head to get up off the couch and move!

When I first joined Instagram I wasn't really sure about it.  Then when I signed up for my first half marathon (Disney Princess Half in Feb 2014) I started following other runners who were training for that race also.  I love seeing people post their outside and treadmill training runs. I knew that if they were running the same race as me, I better get my butt in gear and be running also and compare my mileage to what other new half marathon runners were running.

The longer I have been on Instagram I found more people to follow that like to run as much as I do.

Every morning I am up early on the treadmill on these dark winter days before work.  As I do my cool down walk after my run I check my Instagram page and am happy when I see other people already posting that they are up and working out early too.

Last year I became a Sweat Pink Ambassador.  If you haven't heard, Sweat Pink is a group of women to motivate each other in being healthy and supporting each other's goals. I started finding other Sweat Pink Ambasssadors to follow also and it is great seeing people set and meet their fitness/running goals.  It is fun to know that you are motivating someone too possibly start running too.  It is a great organization to be part of.
