There are days when putting your shoes on for the run itself is a big effort. Today was one such day.

When the procrastination monster strikes and push you on the backfoot, it’s easy to fade out and forgot about the training or whatever the heck we are trying to do.

I have failed to tackle the monster on most occassions but when I do what works for me is envisioning the mindspace I would be in after the run. The chemicals do their bit as well and I have never felt worse after a run.

Putting on your running shoes, arriving at the track and doing one lap at a time - breaking down each of these activity as a whole seems to make the ordeal slightly sweet if not sweeter.
