What Motivates You? Good Stuff!!!

I did a experiment yesterday on Craigslist. I posted this question on a fitness forum, "What motivates you to exercise?" Check out the responses. Some are funny, some are honest, and some are rude. Sorry, but I left the rude ones out :)

  • To increase my incoming sex quantity as much as possible
  • Health, longevity, quality of life, ability, etc
  • To beat the crap out of spammers
  • The burning, unquenchable desire to be the baddest mo'fo' out there motivates me. Haha.
  • Competitive athletics & desire to not look like most 28 yr olds even though I'm 50.
  • Several things motivates me. Some are; I feel better, I like looking like a runner, my depression is a good motivator. "That moment" at an end of a run when I can out kick the other runner(s). I can only do this when my body is in good condition (doesn't happened to often these days lol) Friends motivate me too. Past memories of races and other runners. Older runners that are still out there racking in the miles. I like being healthy, mind body and spirit. A favorite quote of mine:"You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement." - Steve Prefontaine
  • Just do it. If I wait for motivation, it doesn't happen
  • No inducement necessary; running is a part of me
  • To feel better at 60 than I did at 40
  • To look HOT! and feel healthy. I want to compete in figure competitions :) Oh, and to get looks at the gym. Most guys at the YMCA don't seem to be used to women lifting weights.
  • I feel like I've been doing it for so long that i feel weird if i don't workout. I like the physical and physiological effects it has on me!
  • Motivated? Hell I think I am addicted
  • Menopause sucks - when you can no longer have a baby, Mother Nature makes you look pregnant!
  • To get bigger after having been a skinny-ass
Thanks everyone for all your responses. I love them all.

What's your motivation?
