Midweek Motivation: Finish Strong

Sometimes winter can be the toughess time of the year to motivate ourselves as runners or otherwise. I thought I would try to post some motivational stuff midweek for the rest of the winter to help fight some of those winter blues. I hope you will agree that the video below is extremely inspirational and motivating.



Good luck to all the Disney runners this weekend

Kim
Lindsey
Laura
Jenny

and a special shout out to Christy, its her first marathon, and she raised over $7000 dollars for the Arthritis Society.

FINISH STRONG.

Hope you all have a great Thursday! Thanks for reading!
