There are often threads about videos where people demonstrate great courage and general badassery against the odds. I thought it would be nice to have one thread dedicated to such videos for people (like me) to go to when they're feeling unmotivated and uninspired. Here's two that got me teared up unexpectedly but made me feel like going for a run: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja9BFx5Mhqo&feature=related"]The most inspiring video you will ever watch! - YouTube[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZ-_3Ug3wqU&feature=related"]One of the most courageous things you will ever see on a running track ! In my opinion - YouTube[/ame] Afterthought edit: I think videos like "the strongest dad in the world" would fit nicely here too, not specifcally overcoming the odds and stuff, just awesome and inspiring. I could cry right now, but I'm too busy doing pushups Three.... four.... five... argh my arms.. six...

Decided in the interests of keeping the thread going, motivation can come in text as well. My game, my rules, so there Courtesy of IronNation on Facebook:
Partially. It's also motivated by my general weariness of life this last few weeks. Figured others might need a pick me up at some point too.
