December 2007: Have You Seen My Mojo?

I think after four years, I need to take a break from sharing my Internal Monologue and ask you, Dear Groovy Readers, for your input. Here's my situation: I seem to have hit my own Motivational Dry Spell. For the life of me, I can’t get fired up about my workouts. I have not found anything that catches my fancy and inspires me to jump out of bed and get to training. I have (sniff) lost my Exercise Mojo.

So my plan is this. I will ask for a Sports Challenge from you. I will ask for at least four months to train for said Challenge, so if you are going to suggest a race of some type, please make it a spring race at the earliest . I will then attempt and/or complete aforementioned Challenge. I think I just need to get outta my own head for a bit and get some outside opinions, you know? The guidelines, then, for submitting your Sports Challenge idea are as follows:

1. Submit your idea by December 31st. Email your idea directly to me at aimee@happyrunning.com.

2. All Sports Challenge entries will be read and reviewed by me. I will choose one winner, and I will attempt the winner’s Challenge. Winner will receive a fabulous prize.

3. I do not own a bike, so if you were going to submit a Challenge that includes biking, you must also include the bike in your entry.

4. I will document my training and attempting of the Challenge in a future Soapbox.

Thank you all so much for the past four years, O Grooviest of Groovy Readers! And thank you for helping me get re-motivated! Happy Holidays!
