I really agree that you have to like running, but sometimes that new pair of shoes or equipment can be what ignites you. For instance I have been using endomondo with gps tracking and a bluetooth heart rate monitor, and getting so much data on each run, and statistics over time really motivate to keep getting better. And for other people getting their fitbit to 10000 each day may be just the extra bit of motivation they need.
