I have learned a lesson today. I just have to get up and run first no matter what. I didn't do that this morning and my energy lagged horribly because of it. I lifted weights -lats and then 31 min elliptical before I left and came home to run outside. I just struggled for energy and umph the whole time. It was a poor run. So I know that getting the run in first is my top priority, and anything else takes a backseat. If I get the other stuff in great. If not, oh well. A great dane came up to me on my left in the pitch black. I don't like that. Seriously, people need to chain up their dogs at night.....

I know Great Danes are generally very docile dogs, but they still scare the heck out of me sometimes because they are HUGE!

Jake I that's why it startled me, the dog is a beastly size. Like seeing a buck! It scared me so so bad.

Did you pee?

Great job talking Lindsay into racing again. Tell her I said hi. She'll know what it means.

I hear you Lily. My energy and motivation go out the window if I do anything else before running. We always have the best intentions right? Need the summer to make it a habit like brushing your teeth in the morning:) Good work getting your workout in anyway.

Tara I get smarter as it gets warmer and sunnier :) bring on late spring and summer! Tomorrow is sprints at the track. Wish you could join me Tara! Burt your comment is so elusive you crazy cat you!

Bring on Summer! Tara Summers!

Burt I didn't talk Lindsey into racing goof. But I am stoked she is!

Don't tell everyone my last name is Summers. There are a lot of crazy people on here like Burt.

If I don't run first thing in the morning it just doesn't happen. Something more important always keeps me from doing it. I go so early, even the stray dogs are sleeping. Wait... are you sure that wasn't Burt that scared you? He's kinda beastly.

Unleashed dogs are my biggest pet peeve ever. Scary!! I like to do weights first most days but somedays I can totally relate. Just depends on my level of energy I guess.

Lets run together soon. :)

So far on this thread I've been called elusive, goofy, crazy, and beastly. Nice :)
