The days are getting shorter and the mornings getting colder, which means it’s getting harder and harder to get up and run in the mornings. And there were a few nights this week that LM was up a lot, which makes it even harder to wake up! But, I got up and out 5 days this week, and I am pretty pleased with that.
Here’s how the week looked:
Monday was the best day – I actually got up and out of the house at a decent time (around 5:30 am), which means I had enough time to do 5 miles. And the 5 felt really good!
My other good feeling run was Saturday. I ran 2 miles to meet some friends who were at brunch, said hi, and then ran home. My 3rd mile was so so speedy, too- I have no idea how I managed that pace!
All I’m hoping for this week, is some mild, not wet weather so I can getnin some good outdoor runs again! Oh, and some sleep would be appreciated, too … but who knows if that will happen!
Some questions for you:
- How many hours of sleep do you get each night?
- Do you like running when it is 40 and rainy?
I’m linking up with My No-Guilt Life, Marcia’s Healthy Slice, and MCM Mama Runs.
Glad to see you’re getting some good runs in. Sleep? It’s overrated… :p
Actually, I DO like running when it is 40 degrees and rainy. Running in the rain (if it is not a downpour) has always been special to me. I feel like a kid playing in the puddles! 🙂
Haha that’s a great way to look at it!
Lack of sleep is so tough!! Great work getting so many runs in.
I am such a fair weather runner. I hate the snow, wind, and rain..haha. I never seem to get enough sleep. Heck sometimes I have gone to bed by 8 pm but when your alarm goes off at 4 am it is still so darn early!
Up and out 5 days in a week is amazing! 40 is fine but coupled with rain? That would be tough for me to go out in.
