5:30 am mantra...

This morning I was chanting in my head, "Hurts now, feels good later. Hurts now, feels good later. Hurts now, feels good later."

That's all it took for me to haul myself out. Again, 10 minutes after rising I was sooooo grateful that I had. I need to keep reminding myself in the wee morning hours that as soon as I get up for a little while, then I'll be fine.

This morning's run was a short one. My legs are feeling tired...I need a day or two off to just allow them to rest. I biked a bit yesterday, too, so that could be contributing to the muscle fatigue. In any case, for at least tomorrow, I'm taking a break from running. My legs deserve it.

And Sunday morning, I'm sucking pillow no matter what!
