Episode 8 – Monday Running Motivation: #MRM

October 26, 2015 by Cris 6 Comments

Episode 8 – Monday Running Motivation: #MRM
Happy Monday everyone! 🙂 How’s your day going on? First off, I have a semi-confession to make – I said ‘semi’ as I’ve already mentioned it on a few social media platforms – I’m training for my FIRST full marathon, which means 42.195 km (the official distance).

Ta-dah! Now, it’s OFFICIAL! 🙂

Episode 8 – Monday Running Motivation- #MRM4

Picture taken walking around Amsterdam (last month)

Say that again??? Taaaaa – daaaaah! :)) There, I’ve said it again – I’m registered for the METRO GROUP Marathon Düsseldorf 2016.

Wait! That’s not all. Now the BOMB is that I’m planning to do a few full marathons next year, and closing the year with my first ULTRA. Yay!

Do I know what I am doing??? Hell, YES! 🙂 I’m well aware that it’s going to be a BIG challenge and an extraordinary trip pushing myself beyond the comfort zone. And not to worry, I do have a marathon training plan all mapped out for the next 6 months.

Anyway, going back to running motivation ….

Today I give you another piece of my mind – Surround yourself with people who inspire possibility. I strongly believe that the only thing that limits possibility now is imagination. And that’s no longer a cliché.

There is this quote that I absolutely love – “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”

Episode 8 – Monday Running Motivation- #MRM3Show me how you #Run every day of the week by sharing a photo with you while running (or after the run) on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or Google + and see your pic here (not kidding, I will post it next Monday!).

P.S. Are you also training for a race right now? Which one? 🙂

Now off running & be happy!

With LOVE1

      Hi, Eva! 🙂 My boyfriend keeps telling me the same thing. I guess I should get my head around this topic. And soon! :)) Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Wish you a lovely evening! 🙂 Te pup

    Wow, an ultramarathon, really?? That’s amazing! Hope the training goes perfectly. Have you read the Cool Impossible by Eric Orton? He’s the coach from Born to Run. You probably know that already 😉

      Thanks, Dave! 🙂 I really hope it works, otherwise I need to come up with plan B. :)) There is always a way, right?! Now, about the book, to tell you the truth, I haven’t read it yet. However, it’s on the list. 🙂 P.S. I absolutely loved Born to Run, so much that I read it twice.
