Shout Out

Yesterday I emailed back and forth with my friend Tyler regarding accountability, and how it is easy to let yourself down by not working out, but its harder when someone else is counting on you to work out. Today, I would like to give a 'Shout Out' to Tyler!
This morning I woke up to my alarm at 5a.m. and I knew there was a decision to be made; wake up and run or continue to enjoy the cold a/c and warm blankets! Life sure is full of tough choices. However the first thing that came to my mind was Tyler. Tyler woke up and ran Monday morning at 4a.m., wow that is dedication! What if Tyler woke up and ran again this morning? I know he would appreciate it if someone else was running with him, so I got up and ran my 3 miles. Knowing that another one of my buddies was up and training (hopefully, if not just let me believe you were) gave me the power to get out of bed.
Although Tyler gets most of the credit for me waking up and running, I must not forget the other people who made my run a success. Thank you, Plus One, Mandy Moore and Linkin Park for your encouragement during my run!
