Motivation!

So one of my problems is that I seem to sometimes lack motivation.  I know all walkers/runners have this problem.  But how do you conquer it when you live with someone who lacks in being motivtional and couraging to help reach your goals.  This is going to be and will always be a problem in my house.  I love my husband, but he can be a fuddy duddy.  I have a great support group but when you don't see them every day, it seems somewhat pointless.  So my goal last year was to run the dexter turkey trot, and I had a great plan, or so I thought.  I think what brought me down was not only myself, but also lack of support, I didn't use everything that I had at my fingertips to help me reach my goal.  I'm gonna try harder this year to do better, I'm not going to say I'm gonna run the Dexter turkey trot, because I don't want to disappoint myself in not reaching my goal.  So I'm just going to work on short term goals and hopefully get up to my over all goal of running a 5k, yep I'm not giving myself a time to run it in, if I can run it then it's better then I am now.  So I am reading running magazines and taking in tips from every source I can.
