With the second Wednesday in September headed into nightfall, a random evening thought brought me back to the wee hours of this morning when I was getting ready for an early am jog. The time was 5:07 AM, and there was a chill in the air, so I reached in my bag to pull out a sky blue windbreaker, put it on, and began my warmup routine.
Just before leaving to grind out a 3-mile run to jump-start my day, I looked across the Hudson at the view that never gets old to get my juices flowing, and then I tied my shoelaces tight, gently tapped the go button on the stopwatch app, and took off running!
When I arrived at my stopping point dripping with sweat, I checked my time, and even though I didn’t beat my record, close, but no cigar, the time spent exercising while reflecting bright and early was an invigorating experience. I capped it off by sipping on a fresh cup of coffee from a nearby café on a public bench outside, watching the sunrise, and listening to a motivational playlist on Apple Music. Now let’s go win the day!
How did you start your morning? Did you get your steps in today?
Stay safe, healthy, and enjoy your evening!
