Just do it!
Whatever genius came up with that slogan, had to be an athlete. Sometimes you just have to put up or shut up.
I had several excuses for not running today....my head still hurts, I wasn't sure if a friend needed my help today or not (thinking I should wait around for him...), the house is messy, I would like to finish my scrapbook project from yesterday, I haven't written a word of my story in over a week...it goes on and on.
There are soooo many other things we could think of to do than exercise. However, I love it. No really, I do. I don't mean to say that it doesn't hurt- IT DOES, but it feels better than it hurts. Just do it...
Just do it......often.
I ran the Westville Loop. I did it without stopping. Yes, ALL of it without stopping. You know how I brag that I can run up the "crazy steep Otter hill" without stopping? Well the Westville hill gives me more bragging rights, because it's even steeper. I almost always stop on it. You get to what you think is the top, then turn the corner and go up an even steeper grade. Man- I need to get some pictures on here!!
Put up or shut up, Kathy!
Okay- I'll shut up about the hills until you can see for yourself.
song in my head right now...."Shut Up" by Simple Plan

Sounds like "Just Do It" should be your motto to get you running and "Just Did It" should be your motto after you get done! Anything to get you motivated. I run (walk) on a stupid treadmill in my garage and it is hard to get motivated to go out there in the cold. Sounds like you have beautiful things to look at while you run. That must make it nicer while enduring the pain. I'd love to see pix of your routes by the way
