I’m inspired and motivated by words and a collector of quotes. One of my recent favorites is by Kristin Armstrong, author of Mile Markers: The 26.2 Most Important Reasons Why Women Run and at one time a distance runner and triathlete and now a professional road bicycle racer.
The words are so true. The feelings at the end of a run ARE addicting. Never do I recall ending a run and feeling bad.
Check out my guest post at Mommy Run Fast, Menu Planning Tips and Benefits.
What are your favorite quotes? Have you ever finished a run, ride, walk or workout and felt bad afterwards? What feelings do you associate with physical fitness?

No matter if it’s the runner’s high after an awesome sweaty run or a great lifting sesh at the gym, I love the feeling of feeling like I worked my body. I love feeling that I’m getting stronger, faster and more fit.

Sometimes quotes is the only thing that pushes me through the end of a workout!
I love that feeling at the end of a long run, too. That exhausted, exhilarated feeling that you can do anything. Totally why I run!
I’m pinning that quote- I love Kristin, she’s a talented writer. Thanks again for sharing your guest post this week!
