I just got back from my 5am morning run. After more than a month of rain and 15 degrees, the wetter has suddenly changed to sunny and 30 degrees. This makes running after work, when it's at its hottest over here, not ideal. So with my sigma money grindset I decided to get up early and do my runs then. Today I did a 5.5km run (mostly because the round I had was 1.1km instead of the 1km I thought it would be). My upcoming trail run should be no real challenge and I am thinking about doing half a marathon in october. We'll see how it goes.

Running in the morning with a cold shower afterwards is great. I'm doing this thing in the shower where I stand still under the cold water for 30 seconds while I keep focussing on my breath. It gives me a great adrenaline boost it seems and my senses are all fired up when I get out.

I did some strength training as well, but nothing special going on there. I am thinking about buying a weighted vest to do my push ups with, as it is probably easier than filling my backpack with weights every time. Anyone over here with experience with weighted vests?
