Got up and ran before work again today. I think 5 1/2 is the most miles I can get in before work unless I can get up earlier. That is unlikely though, today was difficult, I stood on my porch for a few seconds really wanting to turn around and go back to bed, but I figured I had made it out the door I might as well run LOL. No skunks today, or cats. But there was a horse that was hanging he head over the fence at one point, I thought he might try to get me as I went past, but he just look at me like I was crazy. Got invited to go climbing tonight after work, with a few ladies from work. I think I will try to get hubby to come down to the climbing gym too. So I probably won't get any more miles in today. I tomorrow morning is not as difficult as today was.

Mornings are tough, but it is so good when it is over! The days i give in and stay in bad, I get really mad at myself. That is what gets me up most mornings!

Have fun climbing!

I can tell you were in a hurry this morning. You have more type-o's than Kelli. (Yeah, that's bad.) JK Kell!

I agree that mornings are tough. I think about the earliest I've ever gone running is 6am. Usually "early" for me is about 7:15 or so. I planned on going at about 530am this morning to run before everyone else got there, and what do you know.. the "snooze" factor ended up turning into a 7am wakeup lol. Hope the run today went better, Laurie!

Nice job getting yourself started! Mornings are horrible, I agree. Enjoy climbing, my hubby and I LOVE to climb and usually go outdoors on the weekends - I'm getting better, but it's still hard!
