Motivation “There are NO shortcuts to fitness”…unlike an exam where you can cram the day before, fitness take lots of preparation and commitment. Thinking about this motivates me to do every session properly…no matter if I’m in the mood or not, then on race day I know I have done everything I can and that gives me confidence.
