Training

I've decided I am master at reasons (aka excuses) not to train. After getting my latest active.com newsletter delivered to my virtual mailbox, I have decided it is time to take action. I have returned to my training diary, made a year training chart and now I'm set to plan out my year, set clear and specific goals and stick with them.

Maybe I should use Albert Ellis's Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy.

+ Set a goal for each day (train)
+ If you do it, then do something enjoyable and relaxing(read)

+ If, at the end of the day, you realize you didn't do it, spend an hour doing something awful (clean, especially the bathroom)

Maybe that will get me off my butt and going.

Oh, if only I had the motivation to even start to set those goals... I've thrown the half-marathon out the window (it just adds stress to my life, I want to run because I like it, not because I have to) and decided I'm not pushing it until it starts getting nice outside. For now I'm going to try to motivate myself to do Tae Bo to keep in shape until the sun comes out again! Good luck!
