How to Stay Motivated While Training

Some days you feel like Wonder Woman. Other days… not so much. Staying motivated isn’t about discipline alone — it’s about finding what lights your fire and keeping it burning.

💡 Set Micro-Goals
Don’t just chase the finish line. Set weekly targets: 3 runs, a new distance, or a solo jog without stopping.

💬 Find Your Why
Running for a loved one? A personal challenge? Your mental health? Write it down. Remind yourself.

👯‍♀️ Find a Buddy or Group
Running with others (in-person or virtually) adds accountability and connection.

📱 Use a Training App
Track your progress, celebrate milestones, and get that sweet satisfaction of ticking off a run.

💖 Reward Yourself
Treat yourself for sticking with it — a massage, a new top, a solo coffee date after your long run.

Motivation fades. But purpose? That lasts. Keep coming back to your reason.
