Sometimes getting there is half the battle

5:00 hasn’t surt this bad in a while…actually by the time I hit snooze 2 times it was 5:10, but I still did not want to get up. I didn’t have anyone to meet this morning, was planning on running on the treadmill and completed my first track workout last night…all factors weighing in AGAINST me getting out of bed. But I did it! It was a little tough for the first mile, but I found a rhythm and ran 6.5. Not bad for a morning when I didn’t even want to get up to pee. The run wasn’t bad and even better, it’s over. The rest of the day is mine.

Oh, and the track workout yesterday…my first time doing a speed workout this year. I was definitely winded but not bad…I think I maintained the same pace as I was running last year around this time, which hopefully means that with some work I can improve. Anyway, another positive note in my training. Keep ’em coming!
