Motivation

Well it's been a long time since I've wrote on here but I'm still running and got up to 746 miles! 5 and half months down! Someone asked me what motivates me to do the 1000 miles, to get up every day and run again. I think I've had about 6 days off from running in 5 and a half months! It's been a challenge, phydically and mentally! It's been hard to motivate myself at times I do admit! I've ran in snow, sleet, ice, rain, sweltering heat (had to let Rocky miss that one!). I've ran with athletes foot, blisters and minor injuries. Despite all that it's the wind in my face, the sun, the light, the fields and nature, seeing my dog running along, greeting the day in such a positive start! The money I'm raising the people that may get some help. Also my fitness has increased and I feel the healthiest I have ever felt! These are the things that motivate me! I've got 250 miles to go and I've got to keep motivated and keep going!! Staying away from negative thoughts and self doubt, keeping positive and remembering why I'm doing this is important!
