Sometimes John mistakenly tells people that i like to run.
Well its time to set the record straight, I HATE to run.
BUT, i LOVE how i feel after I've done it.
There are a few things i've found that help me get up and out at 5:30 in the morning.
#1 is somebody depending on me. A running partner is HUGE in my motivation to run, props to all of you who can do it all on your on. Sometimes i can, but lately....i can't :)
The #2 thing that helps me get my run in is setting my clothes out the night before. I'll just make a pile of everything i'm going to need for the run and set it in the bathroom, that way i get up, use the restroom, and change. Everything's in one place, no rummaging around for the hat, or the lost shoe etc... when i'm half asleep. It really does help.
Lastly, i'm happier. The days i do it, i'm a better mom, i'm a better wife, i'm a better home-keeper. Its always worth it.
Anyway, this week my dependable one has been my aunt Kristen, its been so great to be running with her. She told me about my new favorite website. I'm probably the last one to jump on this wagon but it really is great so i'm sharing it with all of you.
mapmyrun.com I'm loving it. Check it out. Its seriously so cool.

That is so great. I'm glad you like the effects of running and that you are getting out so early. That is really amazing. You get to see the sun come up. Good for you
