This time last year, I was up early and heading to the gym on weekdays for my morning runs by 5:30am – 6:00am most mornings. However, this year, I've changed my schedule and have been hitting the gym after work most days. For me, exercising after working a full day has been a challenge. The motivation in itself to make sure I make it to the gym at 6:30pm is quite the challenge. Once I get there, however, I seem to get acclimated pretty quickly and manage to have a good run or workout.
So, today it's Friday and I decided to get my morning run in early before I started work and it felt great! I logged 6.1 miles on the treadmill at an easy pace for 1 hour and 20 minutes – the longest treadmill run I've logged in quite a few weeks.
I think I'd like to get more early morning runs in on the weekdays. It's a great way to get the day started, stoking up that fire and metabolism to make sure calories are used more efficiently during the day!
So, when is your favorite time to run or exercise?
