Let's Get This Bread


Do you ever lack motivation? Do you wish you were in shape? Wish you had some more endurance under your belt? Having a hard time reaching your goals?

 If you answered yes to any of these questions you are not alone. These are common problems for almost everyone. But what distinguishes people is who has the desire to change and tackle these problems.

 To start off, the hardest part of the day is getting out of bed. You're comfortable, it's warm, and you don't want to deal with the day. There's those dreading voices in your head telling you to just stay in and cancel on your responsibilities. Some of these days are harder than others but you eventually find the willpower to get up and get going. You remember your purpose and why you're doing what you're doing and sleeping in all day is not an option. 
You have to go get that bread.

 But, how does one achieve the bread?

 I have learned these ways of life and perspectives from my coaches and personal experience that can help in breaking down mental barriers and be able to handle that daily grind. 
Going for a run and working out takes a lot of time and energy. Just like getting out of bed in the morning, you need to crack that comfort. When you're comfortable, you're not pushing yourself beyond what you're capable of—leaving you stagnant. There's a starting point for everything so all you have to do is get yourself to that start line.

Moreover, you need to find your why. You're why is your purpose which is at the core of your desires and hunger. This is what can help fuel you to chase after what you want. When you have that fire, it makes every little detail you do—every practice, every performance— have meaning and worth. And with that, can bring excitement for what's to come.

 Visualization is powerful as well. When you can see yourself accomplishing your goals it helps with your motivation and what it's going to take to get there. It also feeds into your why and can be a good reminder that it'll be rewarding in the end.

 A big challenge is consistency. Making running and working out part of your daily routine is another battle, especially on your own. When training on your own, it's hard to push yourself compared to when you have coaches and teammates or anyone training by your side. As each day goes by, you are faced with that decision to workout or not. The beginning will most likely be hard, but once you build that routine, results will start to show for themselves.

 Lastly, and most importantly, have fun! Be Positive! Approaching everything with a good attitude helps so much. It changes the game and makes the atmosphere enjoyable. 

 Getting out of bed and working out can be done so much easier with these factors in mind. Changing your perspective can change your life and achieve those goals. Get that motivation going and get in shape!

 Let's get this bread!

Which Terrain to Train? Best Surfaces to Run On

Image
Different terrains have different impacts and stresses to your body. The softer it is, the less shock is being sent up through your legs. But you don't want it too soft either.  Beyond the usual asphalt and concrete surface, try these terrains to help prevent injury and strengthen more areas in your feet and ankles. Grass Grass is an easy access as it is obviously everywhere so if you can find a place where you can do a workout or long run in the grass, take advantage of it. Although some places can be uneven, It is soft and easy on the legs. With this being the case, it is beneficial in making  your muscles work harder. There are also less turns and more space.

About Me

Hi my name is Rachael Temple and welcome to my running blog! I love running and have been doing it for 11 years and plan on doing it for as long as I can. It all started when I would play tag with my neighbors and was pretty quick which led to me dusting everyone in the mile in gym class. When 5th grade came around, I did girls on the run and then joined the running club. Once 6th grade started, I officially joined track and have been training and competing in cross country and track every year since.  Currently, I am a North Central College student where I am on the cross country team and in Digital Media Writing class, so this will be where the two worlds collide.  Everything about this sport has had a large impact on my life and I am thankful for all the opportunities it has brought to me. Since spending so much time running, I have a deep understanding and appreciation for it and want to share everything about it.  I will be sharing personal experiences along ...
