Haha! Yup. A friend of mine has a personal trainer friend that set her up with a pile of workouts to do. I've started joining her at the track. She's a fantastic motivator; hopefully she keeps me on task. The first time I went I literally thought I would barf or die. Ha!

Are you training for something? I find that when I get into a slump a training plan with a purpose helps keep me motivated.

Nope, no training plan. Maybe that would get me back on track; a 10k or something. I just wish I was able to run without having a purpose, yanno?

A race is absolutely a great slump eliminator, at least for me. Set a goal, gets yours training drive going, crush the goal, set another, keeps your training drive going....repeat. Not all of us are meant to be motivated to run or exercise but we usually all feel so damn good afterwards

Stick with it. I know, easier said than done, when things are getting harder not easier, but it will get better eventually. :)

Keep going. It will get easier and hopefully work will lighten up for you and you will be able to get out more when you want to.

Perhaps aim for a shorter race in the next couple of months, something like a 10K to get you back out there. I had a real hard time getting back into running after my first marathon until I picked my next goal race.

Aim for the Midsummer NIghts Run - 15K - A saturday night race - GREAT event. It gets you up there that if the running bug bites again you are up high enough for a half. William is right - take it down for a bit from your marathon and go back to enjoy running without the longer distances. :)

Awesome job, Samantha, and you worked hard enough to have that lovely post-speedwork barfy feeling! Nicely done.
