There are so many reasons not to save your long run for the end of the day, but in case you need motivation to get going on Sunday morning- here is my list of reminders to why you should just get out the door:
- 1.The sun comes up with you, rather than racing the sun to get all of your trail miles in before it gets dark
- 2.Your Garmin watch will be all charged up and ready to go. Again, not racing the “sunset”, this time of technology.
- 3.Less time before you run means less food in your stomach. yugh.
- 4.Your body has time to shake the exhaustion out of your legs before you go to bed.
- 5.Your double the next day will be so much easier
- 6.You won’t dread the run all day long
- 7.You get to shower earlier
All this said, I do have a good excuse for my late run yesterday. The only reason I ran so late was because: a late run in 40* weather with dry roads totally beats 4* on snow packed slippery roads. That’s not a typo, it was seriously single digits in Sun Valley. Yeah, it was worth it.
