This morning, I woke up early to hit the gym for the first run of the week, a four-miler. The gym is such a bizarre place in the morning. I don’t feel completely awake enough to truly focus on what I’m doing or hone in on an awareness of my surroundings. It wasn’t too bad, I guess. I was able to drown out lingering shin and calf pain by focusing on Good Morning America and my tunes. Today’s winning song was definitely “Score Tonight” from Grease 2. Nothing like a little Johnny Nogerelli to motivate a person to keep running.
