Working out in the morning

This morning marked the [insert number greater than 50] morning where I did not get up to work out. I actually set an alarm for 45 minutes early, which I promptly turned off, rolled over to my warm fiance and went back to sleep for an hour. If I had gotten up, this is what I would of done (I know this because for a precious month last winter, I did this):

1. Bathroom/toothbrushing
2. Pound down a bunch of water
3. Rummage around drawer looking for spandex
4. Get Yelled at by aforementioned fiance for "being stupid loud"
5. Find spandex
6. Head down to basement
7. Realize I forgot socks and return upstairs to repeat steps 3 -6
8. Check tires on bike, realize rear one is flat again
9. Replace rear tube
10. Pop random movie in dvd player
11. get on bike
12. realize I am still in my boxers, get off of bike and change to spandex
13. get back on bike, press play on dvd player, discover that I am watching a terrible movie.
14. watch movie anyways while spinning my brains away in a hot basement, my head 6 inches from the ceiling
15. Realize that my anticipated 1 hr "ride" has been reduced to 30 mins by steps 1-13.
16. Finish up, go upstairs, get in shower
17. Proceed as if it were normal day...except I am so hungry now I can barely make it to work (I eat breakfast at work)

By contrast, today I:
1. Bathroom/toothbrushing
...
16. Finish up, go upstairs, get in shower
17. Proceed as if it were normal day

I really do need to get back on the bike.

  1. I wore spandex this morning... but had a cute butt also in spandex to follow... (it helps make the workout more interesting... trust me!).
