Could well be, the other thing could be that weight training is quite a bit more boring than running - I rely on music to get me into a lifting zone.

Weights becomes fun when you see the progress in your physique and in the weight you can lift going up and feel in that things that were hard are now easier.

As someone else suggested, a trainer can really help as can doing a a simple compound lift based programme like Strong Lifts 5x5 as it’s simple and you make good gains pretty quickly.
