Yes, it is dark (that is why a $30 headlamp is such a great idea), and in the winter it is cold (not much can be done there, although in the summer it sure is cooler), and yes, the body doesn't seem to want to work that early (although a 10 to 15 minute warmup in the house will often get the juices going enough to make it possible...or weather permitting, walk a mile first at an increasing pace, stop, then run).<br /><br />For me, I had to get over this notion that I "needed" my sleep, so I would have to fit my running and working out around the Sacred Sleep time (and that nasty thing we all call "work") if it was going to get done. Once I actually bit the bullet and cut back on the sleep (it didn't actually kill me in the end...it just felt like it was going to for a while), I had sufficient time. <br /><br />We're not all fat and lazy..too true. Most just don't think "outside of the box" as you did above, or have things they have already decided they are NOT going to give up. It really is all about priorities....when we truly WANT to do something bad enough, we WILL find a way.<br /><br />Great post !Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05091364691248272512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3496496825272289250.post-21965382063158107372012-01-25T15:51:44.692-06:002012-01-25T15:51:44.692-06:00If I only had a treadmill, I would probably log tw...If I only had a treadmill, I would probably log twice the amount of miles, since I have no problem with motivation. But getting up at 4am is the norm for me, though, was very difficult at first. But like anything else, if you want to bad enough, it will happen. But to change shifts up like like can reek havoc.Kenleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09512831713445031916noreply@blogger.com
