You Can Do It Too!

Getting motivated to get yourself down the hill and into the gym is no easy feat.  Luckily, I have an entire house of girls just as unmotivated as me to follow to the gym, and I know I am not alone.  Hearing my friends' alarms ringing at 7AM and seeing them wearing workout clothes doesn't only make me feel like I should be doing the same, but it actually gets me out of bed.

Here's what I mean.  As I've mentioned in posts before, no one is ever fully healthy on this campus.  Sniffling and coughing is an all-day, all-night job.  As a result, waking up the extra three hours before my first class is quite the struggle.  However, seeing my roommate and neighbors do it makes me hate myself a little every time I press the snooze button.

Granted, sometimes when I follow my friends to the gym my eyes are literally closed and I only run for fifteen minutes, but it gets me out of bed and it gets my day off to an active start.  I like to think of it this way- if I can get myself up and onto a treadmill before 9 AM, I can do anything.

My friend Samantha convinced me to workout with her!
