I suppose most sane people would be sleeping in, but between 5:00 and 5:30 I am usually up getting ready for my Saturday run. Saturday morning has come to equal long runs for me, and are some of the best hours in my week. There really aren't that many people up that early. The streets are quieter, emptier. I run with just my thoughts. It is extremely calming and energizing. I love it.
I keep my long runs with the idea that I will always be ready and in shape for my next marathon (which, as much as I would love to do, is on hold since they are not cheap). But more than that, I wouldn't want to give up those two hours every Saturday.
Some pictures that I have taken on my runs (not great since they are with my phone)...
