    On the days I work...
    set 1st alarm for 2.45. Turn off and roll over
    set 2nd alarm for 2.50. Turn it off and debate getting up (if it's snowed I drag myself out of bed at this point)
    set 3rd alarm for 2.55. Actually get up, stumble downstairs to put kettle on, come upstairs go to loo then back down to make my tea then back up to get changed for work then back down to have tea and my porridge/cereal
    3.35 leave for work
    4am start work and walk around for 8 hours stopping for breakfast at 9am for 30 mins
    2.30pm crawl to bed for a few hours
    6pm get up and have a social life/exercise
    11pm wander to bed again

    The joys of working stupid hours. Tomorrow I start at 3am so move it all forward an hour. On my days off I have a normal life with no early mornings for me. I'm the least morning person ever.

    NICE! Love all the die-hards who hoof it EARLY!! My BIG QUESTION to many of you is this:

    How the heck can you work out after only being awake for 30 minutes?????? :noway: :noway: I need at least 90 minutes (and something in my belly) before I feel I can have an effective workout session. HOW DO YOU GUYS DO IT!?!?!?

    Got used to doing it long ago when I would weight lift with my dad. Same for running. Running was always easier for me within 30 minutes of waking up, before the mind could ask... WHAT THE F ARE YOU DOING.....

    Loud music, some gum to stimulate the mind and get rid of morning breath.... then quick warm up on a machine at the gym, then heavy weights.

    My job has really random hours, and I can be at work at 4pm and get told I have a business meeting at 6pm that I have to attend. This happens on a very regular basis. So if I don't get to the gym in the morning before work, there's a really big chance I won't have time to get there after work because my schedule can change so quickly.

    I dont usually eat until probably 8 a.m. I prefer to workout on an empty stomach and drink lots of water.. and then I go back to the gym at 11:30 am for round two.. ding ding ding

    I'm generally not awake enough to realize I've worked out until after I take my shower when I get home. That's how I do it. I prefer to workout after work, but it is kind of nice to know that when I get off on Mondays and Tuesdays that I don't have to head to the gym.
