bear-crawlI didn’t want to get out of bed this morning.

I didn’t want to put my feet on the cold floor.

I didn’t want to get out of the house by 4:15 a.m.

I didn’t want to dodge deer on the way to downtown Jackson.

I didn’t want to walk out in the cold.

I didn’t want to do the warm-up laps.

I didn’t want to stretch.

I didn’t want to run with a 25-lb. weight.

I didn’t want to do burpees, mountain climbers and pushups.

I didn’t want to run the Gauntlet again.

I didn’t want to run on the treadmill.

I didn’t want to do nearly 30 minutes of Clark’s station.

I didn’t want to do hold my arms up until they burned.

But I did.

Because I don’t want to have heart disease.

Because I don’t want to lack energy.

Because I don’t want to have diabetes.

Because I don’t want to miss one minute of life.

Sometimes you have to do things in life you don’t want to do. But you do them because you know they’ll life that much better.

    Marshall,
    I have been in the Fit 4 Change Class this session – I wish I had been following your blog all along! Today was the last day – I didn’t want to get out of bed! But I did and I finished the hardest 12 weeks of my life!

    See you at the race tomorrow! Next Level!

      I’m very proud of you for sticking with it and doing the work. It is mentally and physically tough — my first session about killed me. But it has helped change my life for the better (50 lbs worth) and I really cherish the friends I’ve met. Congratulations. Say hi to me at the race!
