My motivation...
This may sound odd, but my motivation largely stems from a sort of philosophy. To me, running isn't just going out there and lifting your feet for miles, but rather a challenge of both the mind and body.
Obviously, it is a challenge for the body because of all the work involved and fatigue. But even more so, I believe it to be a challenge of the mind; a challenge to conquer the body and keep it running even when I feel that I have to give up.
I have found out that's why I like to run now, to conquer my own body with my mind to accomplish goals that amaze me.
