I made this from an instagram picture and quote from my friend. I can’t take credit for any of it. I just thought her picture and words (from a poem) were beautiful and needed to be put together.

2 incredibly sweaty miles done!

In the morning.

Before work.

Victory is mine!

It’s no secret that I like to run in the morning, but I also like sleep too. The darkness has made it difficult to get out of bed in the morning. But I got it done this morning! I pulled myself out of bed and went downstairs to my treadmill to get my miles in. I’m so glad it’s done! Even if nothing else goes right my day is a success.

Happy hump day friends.

Mornings are hard

I got woken up at just before 5am by my cell phone ringing. It was work. The fill-in producer for the morning show couldn’t log in to the computer to run the prompter. The show starts at 5am. I gave her the log in information and promptly went back to sleep. (side note: I have great job security because NO ONE can remember this log in information! They will call me at home if I’m on vacation because I’m the only who can remember it.)
My alarm started going off at 5:30am…I finally pulled myself out of bed at 6am.
Another 5 sweaty miles in the books.
They say you don’t regret a workout, but I certainly hated myself for being up and running when I so wanted to still be sleeping. That feeling went away around mile 3. It was a gorgeous morning-albeit quite humid. But I love a good sunny day. Makes you glad to be alive.
I got more honks and “whoo’s” than usual during a morning run.
When I got home I found out why: I had sweated 2 perfect circular spots…right on my boobs. What a picture I must have made to all the morning commuters!
My roomie came home from her Boyfriend’s early this morning and quickly changed and left…but not before telling me that I “was so cute, sitting there eating [my] breakfast.” Um, Thanks? I was watching GMA wearing my robe. I’m sure I looked awesome! 😉
Thank you for all of your kind words about my mom yesterday. I will keep you posted with what we find out. Thoughts and prayers are appreciated! The tests are Monday.
Happy Hump Day friends!

This one is for all my fellow early morning runners out there…Amy, Melissa, Sarah…just to name a few!

While I don’t get up and run at 5:00am, I am up with the sun at 6am! There’s just something wonderful about running during the quiet mornings. Where the only sounds are your footsteps, your breathing, and the birds singing. Morning runs are the best!

Edit: Can’t believe I forgot this Sarah! She’s up for zumba and other classes at 5am!
