Q: Need Motivation To Start Runing Again

i need help getting back into running.. i used to love it. i still do, i just get really lazy. i ran cross country and track all through high school. i was a captain of my team, i loved it, and i was really fast. i also ran cross country my freshman year of college but then i developed illiotibial band syndrome which had me out for a good 4 months. i ran some over the summer, but couldn't seem to get back into shape. either i'd have a relapse or i was just too lazy. now i'm in my sophomore year. i couldn't run cross country this year because i have a job, and without the team i just can't find any motivation to run on my own. i used to have all these aspirations. i think about all running has done for me. it really did save my life. i want to be back in shape again, i want to run a marathon some day. i feel like i've lost a piece of myself and i just want it back Sad ..... any suggestions?

I Feel the Same
I used to do XC and track for school all the time, and I was pretty good (not a team captain, but up there). Now I haven't run for years and I want a piece of my life back (which may be hard with homework). Try watching something like Rocky Balboa (the jogging scenes) for inspiration. Lol

Music and anger works for me. XC here too but only freshman year high school, I was pretty good at it, but I was a far better sprinter then endurance runner. I just took it to improve my endurance levels, but all it did was help give me these knee problems.
