No one can invent your motivation for you. And if you don't like running, then your motivation must be very meaningful to you.
People tend to run because:
- they like to run
- they want to be healthy
- they want to lose weight
- they want to feel that they are doing something important and useful
- they want to achieve their childhood and youthful dreams - for example, to take part in a marathon or other event
and so on

Having a friend to run with and noticing the positive effects on my mental health have definitely helped me keep going on days I haven’t been feeling up for it

Getting motivated to run can be challenging, but start small and set achievable goals. Try finding a running buddy for accountability or join a local running group. Mix up your routine with fun playlists or scenic routes. Consider trying walking lunges as an alternative exercise to build strength and endurance.

You got this!
