I find it hard to motivate myself to run. There will be weeks where I run 6 out of 7 days then weeks where I run maybe 1 day at best.

Run different routes, run with a friend, mix in some sprints and track workouts, do cross-training such as biking or swimming. Things like these should keep you from becoming as bored. However, if you really are serious about boxing, motivation shouldn't be a problem.

I used to run late at night, around 11PM. If you live in an urban area as I did then, one plus is that the air is cleaner than during the day.

get a running partner, not only for motivation but you will just naturally run faster. 10 min miles isnt running. if you are going to go that slow work on going longer and then picking up the pace over a few weeks.

Im slow and lazy though. I think thats a problem. Also when I dont run for a couple days the 2 miles that I run seems that much harder than before so I never seem to really make any progress because the distance I do always seems hard.
