Run before 8am every other day for a week

With the weather being as hot as it is running in the middle of the day can be a bad choice. Getting up early and running before it gets too hot is a better option. And the energy that an early morning run gives you lasts throughout the day.

Sam S Day 1 yesterday. Getting up early is hard, but ran to work to be time efficient. Not sure I'll be doing that again. Short pre shower jog tomorrow for Day 3 of the challenge.

I have found that the third day of starting a new exercise is the hardest. All the plausible excuses make their presence felt. If I cross that, the enjoyment phase of exercise starts.

You must be right Puneet, I didn't run on my day 3...I did cycle but that's not the challenge, so I'll have to start over again. Once I get past the barrier I'll get into a good routine I guess!
