Motivating Others

From my status update on Facebook....

I got an email from someone crediting my training posts for them exercising more. I was elated.

Mark I gotta be honest..i went to the pool on Sunday with 54 laps stuck in my head (which I completed) ...your motivating a few people....thanks

Yancy That's awesome Mark, and nice work! I'll go to the pool this weekend with Lance Armstrong's Sunday 2.6 mile swim suck in my head. PS did you time it, did i just say that?

Yancy Mark McGovern if you're the second person to step forward, does that make for 100 times improvement?

Lisa I've often thought that my posts were annoying until one day a friend said the same thing - and she ran the 5 miler on Sunday - that is the best feeling!!! and i'm gonna keep on posting!!!

George Yancy, you're basically saying I should keep checking in to the gym...

Yancy George, no, checking in tells me nothing, post stats, details, accomplishments.. Humanize the effort.

Mark Yes I timed it but I did not want to embarrass you with my Phelps like time...okay the reality was 57

Tamara I'm just glad ur not posting anything more obnoxious, I hate for the rest of ur ideas to catch on!
