I tend to get up early - it's the best way to get my workouts in while not interfering with my family schedule. Saturday was a good example.
Usually Saturday's are Brick workouts - a bike plus a run. I'm trying to work up the distance of my bricks to approximate the distance of my race - 25 miles on the bike and 6 on the run. Normally I get started at 7am, which seems pretty darn early for a Saturday. But this Saturday, Carol, Paige and Claire had plans to attend a Girl Scout function. I needed to be done with my workout by about 8:15 so I could help get breakfast and get the girls ready. Sooooo, that means getting up pretty early.
I dragged my bike trainer out Friday night, and got all my things together. Got up at 5:30 Saturday and was on the bike by 6:00. What am I doing? This is madness. After 90 minutes on the bike, I changed and headed out for my run. It was actually nice to run outside - usually I run on the treadmill at LTF. Had a nice run, and was home at about 8:20. A little sweaty and stinky, but in time to help get the girls off to their field trip.
Crazy I know, but I guess it's just what I do. Today was a little better - slept until about 6:20. Tomorrow I'll actually sleep in - I'm gonna take a rest day.
Anyway, that's it for now. I'll try to come up with something more interesting for next time.
