My goal this winter to is to maintain a little consistency with my training.
I'm not put off by the cold.
I can deal with the snow.
Sometimes I just suddenly don't feel like going out for a run.
I can be looking forward to it all day
but,as I approach the doorway to the garage
the eagerness just evaporates
or is turned off like a switch.
It's like there's a force field at the door keeping me in.
I can always justify it to myself by saying I need a DOR
but, that's just a copout.
It's like I instantly get tired,unmotivated, & depressed.
I'm not generally a moody person.
It's almost like a chemical thing.
The trick is to just go.
Ignore the feeling.
Be the verb.
Run.
I never regret it afterwards.
But,it is peculiar.

Hehe - are you sure you didn't write this about me? I am have such a hard time getting out the door in the morning. It is amazing how much suddenly has to be done right before I go out the door.
And then you go out.
And it feels good.
And you have another run that permanently belongs to you.
