Una australiana corre medio maratón en su habitación en plena cuarentena

La joven recorrió durante tres horas su cuarto de 10 metros.

Mikaela Gill, una australiana apasionada por los deportes, corrió 23 kilómetros, la mitad de una maratón, en la habitación del hotel donde se encuentra aislada por la pandemia de coronavirus tras regresar del Reino Unido. Gill compartió el domingo en Instagram un video grabado mientras corría, así como su impresión.

«Vi que había gente que corría en sus departamentos y pensé: «Debe ser muy duro». Entonces decidí que iba a ver por mí mismo lo fuerte que realmente era (ahora puedo confirmar que es bastante duro)», escribió la joven. Recorrió su cuarto de 10 metros durante tres horas.

Gill confesó que estuvo escuchando pódcast motivacionales durante este tiempo, y contó sobre algunas formas inesperadas que pueden ayudar a no rendirse.

«Leí que una mujer perdió una gran cantidad de peso pactando con una amiga que si se saltaba ejercicios, debería comer una lata entera de comida para perros», comentó.

So yesterday I ran a half marathon in my hotel room. Yep just back n forth a 10m strip for 3 hours. If ya want some odd tips on how to get yourself motivated then read on and if you don’t care chuck her a like surely and keep scrolling. ⠀ Never been interested in running or ran really at all until I randomly had the urge about a month ago to do a 10km and then ended up wildly getting to 24km (my OG followers would have seen the pure shock). I saw people had been running in their apartments and I thought “that’s gotta be a terrible time”, so I thought I would see for myself how truly bad it was (can now confirm its pretty rough) . ⠀ Unconventional ways I get motivated: 1. You are all gonna be like wot but I read that a woman lost an obscene amount of weight by making a pact with her friend that if she skipped a workout, she had to eat a whole can of dog food. You fkn bet she didn’t skip a single one cause she didn’t wanna serve that up. Dog food is extreme but pretty funny, and around the same time my friend showed me a a bloke drinking a chicken shake (yep blended chicken) and now when I really want to do something, I use the chicken shake in the same way to stop myself from backing out. Stops silly excuses pre quickly ⠀ 2. For running specifically I don’t listen to music until the last couple of km’s. I listen to hours of motivational talks- yesterday it was a playlist called Fearless Motivation on Spotify. They are cringe talks about not quitting but for some reason (idk why) psychologically it helps my brain to make sure my legs don’t stop ahah, they are also like sort of rhythmic to a beat so it helps to keep you steady (haha have a listen yourself idk) ⠀ 3. This is from @davidgoggins, I’m brutally honest about things I’m bad at (running in this case). I stopped telling myself “I wasn’t built for it” and I was being lazy and giving up prematurely & I was the only reason I sucked (shock).it was like my brain had an epiphany and now I just don’t let myself stop. Ok you all may think I’m psychopathic now but you asked for tips that weren’t just “believe in yourself” so here they are. These are Obvy extreme but work for my odd brain.
