| ran to and from 0515 ot workout... great way to start the day, but makes for a bit of an early morning...
(maybe should add that there were also around 1000m of rowing and lots of circuit dumbell/bodyweight exercises afterward...)

| a coworker apparently came into the hotel gym after i had left; when i met him downstairs later to go grab a bite to eat, he couldn't stop laughing about how i had made the little gym unbearably stuffy, and that whereas i had wiped down the treadmill, he could still see a puddle on the floor around it and a trail of sweat from me dripping as i left...
...not gonna lie... i'm kinda proud in a weird way...

Does anyone else get possessive of the roads early in the morning?
I fully recognize the unabashed pretension and absurdity of the implied entitlement, but at 5am, alone on a dark neighborhood street, I can't be the only one that gets mildly annoyed at a car for intruding on MY road in MY world at MY time of day...
This possessiveness does not extend to other runners (or even bikers...); on the contrary, I'm glad to see fellow early morning road warriors...
It's just the traffic of the motorized variety that seems to impede upon our serene little world just before the day's first twilight...
Cars can have the roads for most of the day. Once the sun is up and everyone else is awake, it's THEIR road in THEIR world for the rest of THEIR times of day.
But in those mystical predawn hours of the early runs, I just can't help but feel like we lucky few are running on holy ground.
