2. I'm loving the 5:30 am run -- even in the very dark and even in the cold. Yesterday I ran at 9am in the morning and it totally stressed me out. So many people around -- I had to stop at the stop lights -- crazy. On the early morning runs there are more signs of life starting about 6 -- but from 5.30 to 6 it is really quiet still with only the occasional car. I'm loving the peacefulness.
3. So far, the no pressure running just to build a bigger base is working out well. I'm mostly loving every run. More on that later.

I had a great 6 a.m. run this morning, too! I love the quiet, and the lack of cars to worry about, and the stars. It was super cold for me too. We got a huge dump of snow yesterday (6 inches!), but it was mostly clear and since it's so deserted at that hour I could run in the middle of the street.
Also with you on vests...running is about the only time I can understand their use.
I love that fall is here, the chill in the air is welcome...and the "cold" that we talk about here is nothing compared to the rest of the country who will likely be dealing with snow soon (or now) haha
I'm feeling the change in the season down here in San Diego as well. Not quite as chilly, I'm sure! I LOVE running in the peacefulness of the early morning BUT on Sundays it is SO hard to get up at 5:45! I always end up dodging people during the last 6 miles of my long run!
Keep up the motivation!
