Ode to 5:30

Oh, 5:30 in the a.m.
Dark sleepy hour
and I am up with the moon and the birds.
What an odd combination: me, the moon, and the chirping.
And then there is the whirring of the bike chains,
the thudding of the feet on the treadmills,
And the lady who tells my sleepy feet to jump.

Ok, Lady. I'm up, I'm down, I'm up, I'm sweaty.
Me, the moon, the birds, the feet, the bike and this lady.
All at 5:30 a.m.

See you tomorrow.

so did you feel better all day or were you tired all day? I can notice the most on the days I don't go that I am more tired and crabby and eat more! but I am also tired and crabby when I am there at 5:30....hmmmmmmmm
