I have been trying to re-motivate myself for one week. I need to get back into exercise. The first thing I had to do was buy some new running shoes. Nothing motivates me more than a great pair of appropriate footwear. I bought some Nikes from Sportsco Kippa Ring.
They have had a busy week.
3 x 10km on the Treadmill
2 trips to Genesis Rothwell. One was a killer lower body workout with my Personal Trainer, Pete Sargent, that left me in tears at the thought of needing to sit on the toilet.
2 runs outside along the gorgeous Scarborough Waterfront
3 trips to Coles. I think people were giving me a wide berth due to the the lingering smell of a big workout.
One cup of tea with a friend
Your pretty new shoes have had a busy week.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if I had pretty shoes they would motivate me too?
New shoes are very motivating and so are new gym outfits. Thanks for your comment. Rachel x
DeleteI really need a new pair of runners... Mine have seen better days. I love that yours are pink!
ReplyDeleteGood shoes are a necessity for workout out. My old one were all deflated from use. Now I am bouncing down the street. I love new shoes. Rachel x
DeleteGreat photo. YOu sound just like a post I made earlier this week. Good luck on the exercising.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamara, I'll have to check your blog post out too. Rachel x

ReplyDeleteGood luck with the motivation, shoes seem to be working so far.
Yes, the shoes have been great so far. I hope they don't fail me next week when the novelty of new shoes has worn off. Rachel x
DeleteMaybe that's what I need - some fab funky running shoes to get me exercise motivated?! You have had a busy exercise week! Totally impressed!! X
ReplyDeleteThanks Elisa, I feel great after my week. I'm still being good, so hopefully i'll stick with it for a while. Thanks for commenting. Rachel x

Hi Trish, 8km is great. When I started I could barely run 1km. Running is hard and you should be really proud of 8. Rxx
