Dark Thirty (Five)

Back in the days when the timelapserunner was marathon training, the early morning workout was his standard ritual. But years have elapsed and later morning rising times have become the norm. We must break that cycle if we are to get rugged, get ready, get rumbling towards January 14, 2018. So we set Alexa for 6:00 AM this morning. Seems like a runner's internal clock is actually in control of things, however. Awake at 5:25 AM we were. Ready to leave the house as the oven clock read 5:35 AM. On the streets. Back in the saddle. Not quite in the groove but you have to start somewhere. And somewhere begins at the end of the driveway ... at dark thirty or dark thirty-five, as the case may be.
