Motivation Monday

Motivation? Whats that again?

We have been dealing with Birthdays and sickness in this house for the past week and motivation hasn't even been a word in my vocabulary!!

I did however have a conversation with my friend the fitness guru which reminded me of a sparklingly important little fact when it comes to reaching out and achieving goals (because that seems to be the theme this week)

Know that there are times in your life when things will not go to plan. Know that there is NEVER a right time. The right time is now and you have to be prepared to work around the things that will come and get in your way. Because if you are waiting for the right time to come along - there will always be something that stops you. Now is the right time.................................

Once again - I would also love love love to hear about what other people are doing to help them stay motivated - whether that is some inspiring words or some great pictures.

The general gist is that you leave your name and link below and then post about your motivation on your own blog - with a link back to this post - that way there is a central place for motivation - Motivation Central.

Looking forward to seeing what is motivating people this week!

Task(s) at Hand

I realised during the week that whe I am at work I keep myself on task by writing the things I have to complete each day in list form in my diary, not long after I realised that - a little lightbulb wento off in my head - well why don't I just employ the same method at home?  well Duh!

You may notice that there is no Training of any description listed in that list.

For the past few months I have had chronic pain in my Rt Hip and for a while I just thought it was associated with muscle tightness. However I discovered that stretching actually aggrevated it severly - as does any type of training involving my legs - but specifically the type of training that I most enjoy - walking and running and strength work.

I think I have SacroIlliac Joint Dysfunction as a result of my pregnancy and subsequently from the Labour process. I am off to the Physio on Monday to begin to get it sorted out - but until then I am trying my hardest not to aggrevate it too much.  It is not acticity inhibiting at all - but any activity that I do do makes it very painful after the fact.

lets hope they don't ban me entirely from training!
