Five O'clock A.M.

In my humble opinion, I don't believe God made man to wake up at 5:00 a.m. It's just not natural and people (especially me) just aren't as happy and well functioning at early morning hour. Nonetheless, Troy and I dragged ourselves out of bed this morning at 5:00 and jaunted out on our 40 minute training swim. It was good and it was intense, but it felt good to finish. And I must admit, it feels great to know that it's behind you once it's over with. Now all we have left is a run for Troy and a bike for me and we can look forward to tomorrow's rest day.

I'm tired, but I feel good. Training has been good for my soul.
