WWMMD?

When most women start a new diet/fitness regime, they'll plaster their fridges and mirrors with pictures of Megan Fox/Beyonce/Giselle/insert starlet of choice here, cut out of the pages of heat magazine's 'Beach Bodies Special'. Let's be honest - we've all poured over those pages and squealed 'I just want to BE her!' before trying to crawl into the pages (we've all done that, right?).

Now, as much as I'd love B's legs and Giselle's everything else, they're not at the top of my 'Most Coveted Celebrity* Attribute' list. That spot belongs to the spirit and attitude of this guy:

Mr Motivator greets every hideous fitness task with the smile of someone on quality uppers and a signature grunt that puts Tom Jones to shame. Bright, patterned lycra is his best friend, and he doesn't judge us for exercising in front of the TV. Plus, he rocks a bumbag like no one else on this earth. 

You just know that Moat wouldn't have a problem getting up at 5.30am in the middle of winter to exercise in a park, or run all the miles set out on his half-marathon training plan -  I need to BE him. As the sponsorships roll in for our run (thank you all so much!), it's time to get on the training and ask 'What Would Mr Motivator Do?'


*please don't question Moat's celebrity status, I will have to beat you down.

  1. Furthermore, last week was testament to the power of the WWMMD motivational wristband.

    I couldn't work out why I wasn't in the mood for exercising. Then I realised...I hadn't been wearing it!

    Scientific proof, as if it was required, that everyone should have one. FACT.

  2. As if more proof were needed that he is the most awesome man EVER!

    Must get myself a WWMMD wristband too.

  3. WWMD? She's probably pull a teenager and flaunt it in front of her elderly ex hubby...

  4. And that's why we don't live by the WWMD motto! That could lead to some very dangerous behaviour Mr M.
