This morning was a great morning to be physically active. I got up at 6 am and had a banana with some water. I broke out some warmer weather running clothes and my old beat up running shoes. I got outside and felt the cool morning air against my face, which made all the stress from my day ahead just wash away. I started out slow running past the practice soccer fields while listening to my classic rock play list. There is something about listening to 70's and 80's rock that makes early morning run really easy. All in all I ran about 3 miles today. When I got home I stretched out then hopped in the shower. I capped off my morning with some addition breakfast by eating a whole wheat beagle with natural peanut butter. Needless to day when I showed up to class at 9:30 I was wide awake.

  1. Waking up at six in the morning? I do not think I would be able to motivate myself to get out my nice, warm bed! I do admire the hustle to wake up early and get your physical activity in! Some music I would listen to while running is rap music because of the bass and rhythm which can help with running. Since you do like rock music, try some heavy metal to get pumped up! It is like audio caffeine!

  2. Nice blog Mr. Black! Getting up at 6 in the morning is something that I want to start doing myself. I can never bring myself to not hit snooze on my alarm when it goes off at 6 in the morning though. Going running in the morning like you did is something I wish I could do, but I end up just working out later in the day. Hopefully I can end up like you in the mornings.
