5am Run...

...NOT!!! I hate myself, today. The alarm went off at 5am and I promptly sprung up in bed, then turned over, shut the alarm off and fell back down. I swear I only wanted 5 more minutes of sleep, honest. But, wouldn't you know it, I didn't wake up again until 6:30am (it's Friday, and it's been a really tiring week). Then, instead of lacing up my shoes and heading out the door, I contemplated the clock. If I go for a run now, I won't be back until about 7:30am, then 15 minutes for breakfast and then a nice hot shower followed by blow drying my hair (hey, it's winter and I don't want my hair to freeze...) will get me to about 8:30am. Yikes! No way I could possibly make it into work for my 9am meeting since the drive in would take me 40 minutes putting my ETA at work around 9:15 at the earliest. Ok. That was definitely not going to work. Clearly, there was no time for a run this morning. I am so deflated. Not a good start to my training. As I type this blog, now, I can see my running gear out of the corner of my eye. It seems to be staring me down...ugggh! I should go for my run now. But, after a long, hard day at work and a very trying week, will I have the energy to complete my planned 2 mile run???

Hmmm.......I'll sign off now and catch you later 'cause it's time to lace up my sneakers.

Ciao!
