Not My Thing

It's 11:30pm and I'm still up. I've been called a night owl too many times to remember...and to be honest, I am. This messes me up because I prefer to exercise...at least the cardio bit, first thing in the morning. That way, I can start my day feeling like I've already accomplished something...so if the remainder of the day is crap it doesn't really matter. Nothing can get me down! Plus my energy is boosted, I'm way more alert, and I just love to start my day on a high. But I'm not great at getting up in the morning. Not so bad during the 'Big Sleep' because I'm not ripped from my sleep by an annoying alarm, or if I am - I can go back to sleep. That is the best feeling, isn't it? Being able to just roll over, tell yourself 'I don't have to get up today', and go right back to sleep...*sigh*.
But once the 'Big Sleep' is over.....holy shit is getting up so early difficult. In order to be able to fit in the workout, I have to get up at 5:00am, something I am HORRIBLE at doing. It is so easy to convince myself that sleep is more important and comes first. Seriously...I've convinced myself of that way too many times to keep track.
But tomorrow CAN'T be one of those times. It just can't. Only 44 more days to go 'till the run.
On that note, g'night.
