When I travel I always have the best of intentions. I take my running/workout clothes and tell myself I'm going to go to the gym or run while I'm on the road. Somehow it rarely seems to happen. So many excuses: I'm tired, no time, not comfortable running alone in an unfamiliar city.
Next week I'm going to Atlanta for 5 days to speak at an online marketing conference. I'm taking my workout clothes and this time I'm determined to get some exercise in. One thing that will help is that I'm meeting up with a colleague who is training with Team in Training to power walk a marathon. We're planning to get a few walks in together. A great way to catch up, brainstorm about possible projects we can do together AND get some exercise.
I'm also going to use the following video by Rachel Cosgrove to get me going if I only have a few minutes in my room before all the morning to night activities.
Do you workout when you're on the road? If so, how do you motivate yourself?
