Love The Way You Move

So its February. The uncomfortably freezing cold temps have stubbornly set in, the roads are still snow covered, and the Groundhog saw his shadow... seriously, 6 more weeks of winter?! This time of year, it can be hard to "feel the love", but hey, isn't this the City of Brotherly Love? As residents of this glorious city, I personally feel like its up to us to carry the torch. 

You don't have to be a sucker for red roses and chocolate boxes (although who doesn't love a good secret admirer) to feel the love, and you don't need a Valentine to participate in this holiday season. I'm not talking about romance and relationships. This is about your love for the sweat, for the rush and for the results you are getting from your fitness routine. Whatever your move of choice (running, spinning, swimming, dancing, whatever), if you LOVE the way you move, trust me, you're going to keep on moving. 
Now I know, maybe love is a strong word to describe your affections for that 6am spin class... however, there has to be a piece of you that loves it. Love the way it makes you feel, love the way it changes your body, or puts your mind into a better state. Whatever keeps you coming back, that is love. So this February, think about what it is you love about your routine, and embrace it. Write it down and remember it, because on mornings like this one, when its snowy and cold and all you want to do is stay in bed, it takes true love to get you up and out that door. 
PHILLY LOVE RUN What better way to feel the love this spring than signing up for the Philly Love Run. This half marathon starts from the Art Museum, weaves through Center City, and then takes you out and back on the Kelly Drive loop.. Haven't been training? No worries, the race isn't until March 30th so you have plenty of time to kick it into gear and get training. No excuses! You don't have to love running to love the feeling of pride and accomplishment that comes with running a half marathon, and this is sure to be a great one. So sign up! We can't wait to be a part of this inaugural event and hope to see you all out there.  Happy Love Month!
