As I ran past her she hollered out, “Whattcha doin?”
“I’m going for a run.” I replied.
“Why?”
“Because it’s fun.”
As I cruised past the inquisitive little girl I kept thinking about my reply. Because it’s fun? F-U-N? Since when did I start thinking running was fun?
For the next 15 minutes or so I retraced my running history.
I sure as heck didn’t always thinking running was fun. For 3/4 of my life I despised it. I hated running so much that I actually dreaded the warm up run around the rugby field before practice. It was a whopping 4 minutes at a slow jog! If given the choice I would have rather done tackling drills with the men’s team than saunter around that field.
Why am I telling you this?
Because I want you to know that you CAN change the things you enjoy. You CAN enjoy exercise and you CAN enjoy eating healthy.
Think about this….have you always enjoyed coffee or beer? Or was it sort of an acquired taste that grew on you?
I’m not asking you to go running until it grows on you. Running is certainly not for everyone. I’m asking you to exercise until it grows on you. I’m asking you to open your mind to the possibility that you just might start to enjoy it.
I know this is a possibility because I see it happening in our studio all the time. It’s amazing how your likes and dislikes can and will change when you change your lifestyle. What’s even more amazing is how quickly these preferences of yours can change.
Take the first step in the right direction and keep an open mind….You’ll be surprised at the changes coming your way.
To a Healthier You that Enjoys Exercise in the New Year!
