Gonna Fly Now

It wasn't quite 4 a.m., and I didn't drink raw eggs, but I did feel a little bit like Rocky Balboa as I set out on a 7-mile, pre-dawn run at 5:30 this morning. The runs continue to get progressively longer on my marathon training plan. The lack of daylight in the evening now that daylight saving time is over coupled with the time it takes to get the long runs in is causing me to have to adjust my running schedule to get the runs in around work and classes. I didn't mind this morning so much. It was kind of cool running as the dark of night slowly gave way to the light of day.
