Did it anyway.

I did not want to run this morning. Absolutely, 100-percent DID NOT.

I had previously set my alarm for 4 a.m., the time I have to get up to get 8 miles in and then take care of all my morning stuff (shower, breakfast, COFFEE, kids, etc.). At 3:45 a.m., I woke up and changed it to 4:30 a.m., which is the time I have to get up to get 6 miles in and still do everything else.

At 4:25 a.m., I was staring at my alarm clock, not wanting to get up. Then I told myself, "Beth, you only get to sleep about an hour longer if you don't get up and run. Is it worth it?"

Nope. I am so happy I convinced myself. :-)
