My fitness is positively influenced with visual motivation. As I write this four pictures are sitting around my desk of me and hubby camping, backpacking, rock climbing and standing atop a breathtaking Colorado Fourteener. Keeping outdoor pictures around reminds me to get outside and get busy in the fresh air.

If you like to run and cool pictures of runners have a way of pushing you out the door for a couple miles or more, check out Rave Runs -- free, downloadable desktop wallpapers at Runner's World. They feature inspiring photos of solitary runners striding down a path amongst a variety of breathtaking landscapes.

Each and every picture speaks to me -- I especially like June 2008's mountain shot as well as May 2008's meandering Southwest river shot. Which one is your favorite? Hey Runners World, if you need wallpaper photo models, my bags are packed and I'm non-union cheap! Thanks for the free motivation to get my rear off this desk chair and out the door for a quick run.
