The first step is admitting it....

I found this list on Pintrest today...I'm currently on my lunch break {sigh} but I thought I would post it.  Since writing about feeling withdraws from running I have made a goal to start running more...because, honestly in the last 2 weeks I have not run at all! And I don't even have the sick excuse to use! So I thought maybe by admitting it this would be the first step to getting back on track.

Enjoy the list... I crossed out a few that don't apply to me : )
