A wimp no longer

Success!  Got up and ran before work this morning.  I've broken a two-week curse of not being able to drag my lazy butt out of bed.  The reward: feeling good all day, not to mention the sunrise and the stillness.

It brings up the eternal conflict between present self and future self.  Future self never regrets when present self goes on a run, no matter what the circumstances.  Present self sometimes regrets it while running (but never after!).  But, of course, one can't delay gratification always or present self will become a bitter shell and future self will have nothing left to enjoy.

Today: 4 mile run (fartlek), yoga for later
