Burchib...I'm a little younger than you--46 in May--but YOU give me hope that I can continue this well into my 50s and beyond!  I started working out in the morning after I had my two daughters.  I didn't want my training to interfere with my mom duties so I figured I'd start working out early while they were still sleeping.  That habit has continued for 15 years--the more endurance events I became involved with just meant the earlier I had to get up!  During the school week I'm in bed by 9--my girls and hubby are more night owls so where once I was putting the girls to bed now they come up to say good night to me.  I keep it pretty routine during the week--a little more lax on the weekends.  It truly has become just what I do and I wouldn't have it any other way.  Oh, the KK I refer to is my Kirk Kinetic bike trainer--love that thing.  I am extremely limited for road biking where I live so I rely heavily (about 95%!) on my bike trainer for workouts.

Hoping the rain will stop today so I can get out to Blue Lake to swim after school!

Have a great day, Peeps!
