This morning I woke up at 9am intending to run at about 10 (I'm training for a marathon, so I wanted to get started on my long run early). I stayed in bed until noon and didn't start running until around 2:15. I was able to do the run (and I feel good for having done it), but motivating myself to begin was still difficult.
The motivation to start is often the hardest part for me, but I never regret it once I get going. In a sense, I always want to run soon but I never want to run now.
