Well, I've decided to take on a new training plan because I would really like to complete a triathlon sprint within the next year and possibly run in one of the Disney half marathons coming up. Also, I think I've found that if I try to stick to the Active.com training plans, I lose motivation...that thing had me scheduled to work out 6 days/week and there would be times I would look at the scheduled workout, think to myself "Yeah...I'm definitely not going to do that," and then just not be motivated to do anything at all!
So thanks to my previous roomie, Amanda, I remembered her telling me about this awesome app called Fitocracy. It's like fitness social networking, except when you add activities you get points to work up to the next level! So for every level you move up, the more points you have to earn to make it to the next level! That is more up my motivational alley, because now it's like a game! Big shout out to Amanda for introducing me to the app! (Yall should get it too so we can motivate each other and track our points together!)
Anyway...I've got a lot to look forward to in the upcoming months :) I've gotta start training, getting back on track, losing the jiggle in my legs, being able to fit into more than my "fat" jeans...(yeah, that's been the latest downfall...)
According to one of my new favorite quotes: "If you don't like starting over, then STOP GIVING UP."
That's the new motto because it's so true...I'm getting sick of saying "This is it!...All right, for real this time!...Okay, here we go again!..." Yeah, it's all getting old.
Much thanks to Pinterest for keeping new motivational and inspirational pins popping up for my fitness boards so I can look back at them and keep on trucking.
Day 1 of "MISSION: Change For The Better" begins tomorrow :)
so happy to hear you joined fitocracy! let's see what you got, girl! = )
