Slowly but surely...

In my previous entry, I talked about how if I wake up too late, I won't go running. The same applies to if I drink more than one drink the night before. Combine these two hindrances, and you've got one big "I'm not going to run today" and then some guilt to boot.

So, needless to say, I did not run yesterday. I also drove to work (so no 'I'll make up for it with my bike-ride) because yesterday was my last day in a 7-days-in-a-row workweek, and hell, I deserved it.

However, I did go to the gym today, even though I woke up at 9:30. I also set a PR! Not a big deal, since I guess I'm constantly improving, but I did 4.4 miles in 39 minutes, including the 2 minutes of cooldown.

Tomorrow, if I wake up, will be an easy run since Sunday's supposed to be long. We shall see.

well, I finally found your fitness blog. Congrats on running 4+ miles!
I personally know how difficult it is to get up to work out every morning - that's the only time I can actually fit in my work out. But lately I think I have finally gotten the hang of it - you just wake up and do it.
Keep up the good work!
