My Morning Run - Really Evening Run

Officially these runs are really evening runs, at least for the time being due to my inability to haul my sleepy butt out of bed in the morning. This lack of morning motivation may be a result of the dismal winter weather that we get here in the banana belt of Montana - oh yeah and the lack of morning sun. This winter has been a bust - little to no snow, rain that turns to ice and freezing temperatures that turn working pipes into non-working pipes.


But I digress; the point of this particular blog post is to hopefully keep me motivated. Since I moved to Big Sky country the running has been hit and miss, mostly miss, due to the fact that I work an office job. Who knew that sitting under florescent lights and staring at a computer screen all day would zap all your energy? Add to this fact that for the last year I have been battling the completion of a thesis that left very little time for actual physical exercise.


Now that the thesis is complete and the days are getting longer, motivation is slowly returning to jiggle jog my way to health. I started last night with a two-mile run (20 minutes totally) on the treadmill of wonder. Updates to follow and hey by all means, jump on the bandwagon of motivation.
