    Tbf a mile isn’t a long run at all. Maybe 10 minutes? Good wake up for sure.

      It’s just how do you find the motivation to wake up and run a mile? I barely find the motivation to make tea

      For a decent runner it’s five or six. I can walk 13-14 minute miles all day long. Except I slow down on steep mountain inclines.

        Yeah. In my summer running schedule I have some 1.5hr morning runs. Seems like a lot (tbf it is) but those are the days that I have the most energy throughout the day. The more I exert, the more I get in return provided I’m eating adequately.

        Long morning run days leave me feeling invincible for the rest of the day.

          I hiked 7 miles/11km of steep hills in a little under two hours this morning and I’ve been fired up all day. I get it. I used to do long runs but I’m getting old enough I do better with fast paced hikes.
