Motivation Monday

Since buying the treadmill I've been quiet addicted to using it. I've worked out for the past 10 days in a row (minus Superbowl Sunday). I'm exhausted but loving this "runners high" I'm getting. Since training for the 1/2 marathon, I haven't been in the mood to just run for miles and miles on end, so these workouts have satisfied my desire to sweat like a pig, and incorporate other movements besides just running.

I don't share these to be like "hey! look what I did..." but more as a "hey, look what is possible at home without a gym and little equipment." I hope to inspire others that you don't need a ton of space or anything fancy to have 30-45 minutes to take care of yourself. I've found that if I take this time for myself, the rest of the day seems to fall into place and I'm in a way better mood.
