Temptation Resisted!!

For the first time since I've started my fitness regime, I was severely tempted to be lazy today. Work drug on forever and I was so exhausted this morning since I spent the entire day yesterday cleaning, organizing and rearranging all the furniture in my apartment! By the time I got home and ate dinner I didn't feel like doing anything. I wanted more than nothing to go to sleep. As I started to get ready for bed my guilty conscience kicked in and reminded me of how satisfied I will feel in the morning if I worked out. Then all my motivational pins on Pinterest started popping into my head, reminding me of what I want more than anything- more than sleep!

I drug my lazy butt to the gym and went further than ever before! 4 miles in 30 minutes. I know that might not be impressive to all you runners out there, but that's like winning an award to me. I am NOT a runner. I never have been. Not even when I was in the best shape of my life and exercising every day. I could never keep up with the other girls when it came to running. It just goes to show you that you can always impress yourself and your body can do more than you think it can!
