The mornings have been really dark here with the time change and morning cloudiness. This morning I woke up before my alarm, but still enjoying the comfort of my bed. I quickly reminded myself of how a few days ago I was unable to go for my morning workout and even struggled to get through a day of work. I have been trying to find the joy in the moments of the day. Today my daughter Rebekah has a doctor’s appointment where she is possibly confronting a life-long condition. Today is also my second oldest grandson’s 10th birthday. My precious Charlotte is coming home today after 5 days taking care of her mother while her father takes a mini-vacation. I did 6.8 miles in 1:53:25 for a 16:40 minute per mile pace with an average heart rate of 109 bpm with an elevation gain of 214 feet at an average cadence of 126 spm at an average power of 131w at an all out effort of 9 at a breezy and cool 35 degrees. There is a peacefulness which is worth the sacrifice of going out on the road early in the morning. I don’t move around the fastest, but I am grateful to be able to do what I do.
