It is better in the morning

Hi All:
A confession. I put on running clothes no matter what when I wake up because I am not not not going to miss a run/workout. Sometimes it is 6pm and I'm still in the clothes and unable to admit the window has passed and I'm not getting to work out. When I show up at my children's practices still in the workout clothes I rarely take that time to work out. Not sure why.

Last Sunday my husband and I ran at 7AM before church. I felt great that whole day and showered and street clothes on. I like that feeling better.

I understand -- I wear my workout clothes to bed to ensure I get my butt up in the morning to do it. When I have slept in to the point there is only 20 min. before I have to shower before work, I face defeat. And sleep 20 more minutes.

Hi Patrice!

I'm the same way -- I feel so accomplished once I've exercised and have real clothes on for the day. If I start out in real clothes, it's a major feat to get changed again and workout.

I hear you on the house "tour" requests, too. Rather than just cleaning up one area when you have visitors, you've got to scan the whole place in case they've never been over! (My big horror is my husband's exploding closet ... I just leave it now, but I used to force it all in and struggle to get the doors shut whenever people dropped by.)
