Who Doesn’t Like Sports Apparel?

With spring in the air, more people, such as myself, are looking to hitting the pavement with walking shoes in hand. After buying myself a good looking and mighty cute sweatsuit complete with bottoms and a nice hoodie top, my thoughts turn to what I do best. Procrastinate the season away.

As a procrastinator, I know all the excuses. While I do have my favorite, I must admit, I use all of them freely. In reality, the only person I am hurting is myself – and the extra weight built up over the colder months firmly attached to my derriere. Getting the motivation necessary to start something new has always been one of my struggles. We all have them! This one is mine.

To get myself a bit of that motivation, I take a look at some of those t-shirts that you always find in sports apparel. Perhaps, if I wear those t-shirts, I will miraculously decide, “Hey, guess what? It is time to go walking!” Only time will tell.

Outside it is beautiful, and honestly, indoors is stuffy and I am ready for a break. My puppy whines for her outdoors activities with mom, and I avoid direct eye contact with her leash. The leash is capable of sending me subliminal message… I think.

Needless to say, I will start my new weightless program armed with my new fleece sweats soon. I will feel better for the activity, and my puppy will appreciate her time with mom. Maybe I will start this evening, but more realistically, I will start sometime tomorrow.

Does anyone else out there in Blog land have trouble with motivation when it comes to exercise? How do you avoid walking? Better yet, how do you get yourself to do it? What is your favorite sports apparel?
