morning runs

i need to start exercising in the morning. our nights are too short and busy. the problem, i don't like getting up at 5:15 after potentially getting up with the baby. for instance, calvin needed (check that: NEEDED) to eat at 4am this morning. it was too early to stay up (for me anyway), but going back to sleep at 4:25 means waking up at 5:15 hurts that much more. i guess i just need to get tough and make myself get up.

why do i want to run regularly? well, right now i feel like i need to run. last night i got out for 10 kilometers and for the first time in a long time felt really good. dare i say i felt fast. i even pushed a little (some intentionally and some due to being attacked by a red winged black bird). the bird made full contact with the back of my head/neck...and for awhile i thought i had been cut either by its beak or sharp talons. anyway, i feel like i'm starting to build some momentum and i don't want to lose that again.

happy tuesday.

Those damn birds. Took one to the back of the head on a ride. Have thought of riding with a tennis racket for defense/retaliation.
