@JustBrogrammer Absolutely agree. I've been saying this for years. 🖖🏻

@WTL @JustBrogrammer For me, it's the initial impulse to get my ass up and start gathering running gear.

Same idea, different manifestation. :)

@ticho @JustBrogrammer It is interesting to me that as soon as the shows get on, the “I don’t wanna” pretty much goes away.

@WTL @JustBrogrammer My "I don't wanna" goes away the moment I start consciously moving through the house, picking the running clothes, water bottle, etc.

@ticho @JustBrogrammer Interesting how the ritual of getting ready fixes things, eh?

@WTL
I had a saying that I found as I was training for my first marathon. "A runner is someone who tries to talk themselves out of running while they get ready to run"
I remember by the time I got to my porch putting on my running shoes I would concede that maybe I might just run around the block. Every time I would end up running the planned run or more.
