Staying In Balance

As we all know life is a balancing act. For me it is juggling exercise, family life, and one of my many jobs which can be difficult. For example I was in Chicago all weekend, up at 3:30am to work at the Rock & Roll Chicago 1/2 Marathon and got home at 8pm. Somehow I managed to drag myself out of bed at 5:20 so I could get a run in before Jenny leaves for work. After my run I hit the bike trainer and weights for upper body strength all before 7:30 which is when I had to wake up Claire so I could make breakfast and drop her off to grandma before work.

What is the point of the long story? You have to find that balance even if it means losing a little sleep and no making excuses.
