The weather here has been perfect. I spend so much of my running time with a jogging stroller in tow that my posture is horrific. Thankfully, I have been able to use my time in the CST to my advantage. I am trying to keep on my two hour earlier schedule and get in some quality running time.....A-L-O-N-E.
It is amazing how much faster I am sans jogging stroller. It is amazing how much more soothing the time is when I am not worried about entertaining, feeding, keeping the child buckled in.
Granted, I LOVE having her along for the ride. She enjoys the time and I like having her outside. We usually stop and have some park time and all that jazz.
But it is so nice to have five miles to myself. And a cup of coffee when I get home....by. my. self.
In some ways I think I was a loner in my past life.

ReplyDeleteWe put the kiddos to bed at 9PM and I am usually lights out by 10PM.
My commute to work is an hour to an hour and a half and I like to give myself time to Blog for a few in the AM. So I wake at 5:50AM every morning.. UGH!! When I work from home I cut out the commute so I got up at 7AM today.. It was nice!!
