New Addiction

November 12, 2011 By Laura

I gave in. I now have a Pinterest account.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

Today I’m going on a long run to ensure I will be able to run the Atlanta Half Marathon on Thanksgiving.

In honor of this run, here are a few images from my crack “Inspiration” board on Pinterest.

Did this Thursday morning!

“There are some things you should know about me.

My sweat is clear and my blood is red.

My feet are tired and my knees are weak. 

My thighs are burning and my abs are hurting.

Right now my heart feels like it will burst.

But let me be abundantly clear.

When I’m finished my body will be unforgettable.”

***

I will rock this run today.

What inspires you?

Do you Pinterest?  I’d love to see your boards!

    You know I love Pinterest! Love all of these…especially the very last one (a quote?).

    I find my inspiration everywhere – especially when I see someone else working hard at the gym. That always makes me smile and get my act together.

    I have that 100 workout pinned too. Maybe I should actually do it!

      You should! It’s a good one.

    I’ve been on pinterest for a while, but… still haven’t done much with it. I figure one day when I really look around I’ll get addicted too.

    I LOVE these – they are all great. “I don’t have time to figure out if I can go for a run, I’m just going” I LOVE that – it was on my office wall for a while.

      Be careful… once you do get into it, it’s pretty tragic. 🙂

      I love it for recipe idea organization.

    I love everything about this post, including that you did that 100 workout! (Kick Ass!!!) I can’t decide if the “I’m making myself EPIC” or the lunch sign is my favorite here.

    I’m still holding out! I’m having a hard time coping with managing everything in my life right now already; I really think giving into Pinterest will only create problems 😛 Love seeing what others find though!

    Also, I can’t do that 100 workout because I don’t know what half those moves are. 😛

    • Laura says

      You’re a smart girl. 🙂 If you want to know to moves, shoot me an email and I’ll walk you through it!!

    Love it! This post has inspired me!!! And that is no mean feat considering I have a hangover that could slay a walrus! Ha! Hope the run went really well! 🙂

    I wish I could get addicted to running. I typically only run if someone is chasing me. Lol. I used to love working out and lost my fire. Need to find it again. Very soon.

    • Laura says

      November 14, 2011 at 10:49 PM

      HA! That used to be my line. I don’t know what happened to make me start, but now I’m addicted to the feeling I get after a good run.

    I am absolutely addicted to Pinterest as well! Whenever I try to explain it to someone who isn’t on yet I always make it sound so silly. Once they finally join though, they realize the addiction!

    • Laura says

      November 14, 2011 at 10:54 PM

      I had that experience Saturday night! They were looking at me like I was nuts while I was giving my explanation.

    I don’t think i can start pinterest…I won’t stop! I can’t fit in another thing to click on and get addicted to. I won’t have time to run! LOL.

    I’m a few days late, but hope the run went well. Cheers!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE pinterest and I love that you’re addicted too hah. Did you just sign in with your twitter/fb account or did you request an invite to join pinterest?

    • Laura says

      November 14, 2011 at 10:55 PM

      I requested an invite. I didn’t realize the other was an option!

    I love the sound of the 100 workout!! Totally saved the image so I can do it sometime this week! 🙂

    I’ve given in recently too… Love the inspirational quotes, ocean swim training has started and I’m in a lot of psychoological distress. But quitting is not an option now. There’s an Australian fitness clothes brand Lorna Jane that produces inspirational singlets – Dream, never ever give up. I wish they did swimwear,

    Hi Laura! Been trying to catch up on some blog reading this evening….loved this post! I would have to say that I’ve never short on inspiration when I have all these blogs (like yours) to read and motivate me to get my butt moving! I managed 53 miles in 16 days on the cruise! Not an easy feat while on a treadmill crossing the Atlantic!

      That’s no small feat on a cruise ship! I tried that and nearly broke my neck. Way to go!
