Running 1:04:00 [3] 8.0 mi (8:00 / mi)
Now, I don't normally run in the morning, let alone get up specially early on a Sunday to go on a run, but ice cream can be quite a convincing motivator. Steel City Road Runners had a Pittsburgh Marathon training run starting and ending at a local ice cream shop near my apartment so I thought, why not? Ice cream is always good, especially after a run! While I was regretting this rash decision on Sunday morning when my alarm yanked me out of a nice, peaceful sleep, the whole experience of morning running didn't turn out to be nearly as awful as I thought it would be. Plus, the ice cream afterwards was amazing, probably the best I've ever had. So I'm not saying that I'm going to be dragging myself out of bed to go running every morning, but it's not the most outlandish possibility every once in a while, especially when there's the promise of ice cream waiting for me afterwards :)
