Avoid eating a lot in the morning.
drink coffee, mint flavored green tea, OJ
eat something sweet (berries, fruit, sugar/honey/sweetener)
take vitamins + minerals + some fatty acids
check up stuff on the internet: forums, social media, emails, etc.
play some video games, watch some videos, read stuff
NO WORKOUTS IN THE MORNING
NEVER GO TO WORK
go out to eat some lunch at midday
Weekdays:
Roll out of bed at 4:45 am, put on running clothes.
Push button on pre-loaded coffee maker.
Drink half a cup of coffee, answer nature's call.
Out the door to run about 5 am.
Return about 6:30 am.
Shower, eat breakfast, out the door to work by 7:30.
Weekends, usually sleep 30-60 min later, maybe run longer, and usually don't go to work.
That's Great! Keep us updated!
I usually start the day by dragging my slop bucket out of the basement to empty out into a hole in the backyard. My mom limits my use of fresh water so any chunks that stick to the bucket, I hope that my wee stream is strong enough to get at them.
Wake up, restroom, weigh myself, drink a lot of water, sometimes check youtube or facebook, run, breakfast, shower
Take a few rips of the bong, launch some projectile vomit into the toilet, pull on whatever combination of socks I can find and lace up whatever pair of shoes is closest to the door, proceed to absolutely murder everything and anything that dares challenge me on the oval.

This is exciting and inspirational.
Wake up around 530, think about life for a few minutes in bed. Get dressed for running, creep downstairs allowing baby and wife to sleep. Drink a couple glasses of room temp water, Turkish coffee, hit the john, go out and give thanks and run. Come back around 7, make breakfast, wake up the missus, eat together, shower, dress, wake up baby, play peakaboo, walk to work with the missus after chatting a few minutes in Albanian with the nanny.
Don't think I really have a routine ha.
Depends on scenarios.
If working eves and not a stressful eves (Running around/Wrestling/So forth) then try to get up by 8. Then if up by 8 depends on the length of the run and weather. Usually plan 6 Miles or less before breakfast. If over 6 Miles say 8 usually will run mid morning after an hour or 2 passes from having breakfast. Usually has to be a cool day 80 or less outside no rain/snow.
Also if it's a day off after working eves try to go to the gym around 630 or 7, but that means 5 hours of sleep.
Then if I have the day off prior or worked day's prior usually up by 7. Then breakfast after I run. Depending if working eves that day morning consist of TV/Reading/Music. Maybe a nap. Laundry and cleaning. Then if working eves cooking dinner for that evening.
Now if it's a day off in general usually gym by 10. Then depends if it's a run day. Usually will run 6 or less on a gym day so either gym early morning 630/7. Come home breakfast, nap, and run. If gym by 10 already had breakfast have a snack. Go walk my mom's dog if not the weekend. Run by 1 or 2. Then relax for the day. Finish errands cleaning and cooking. Maybe more bills or grocery shop.
Then things can get real chaotic if it's a night shift or a day have class. Night shifts vary. Usually if not doing a eves to days I am motivated to go the gym. Sleep 4 hrs. Eat lunch. Take a nap and run for an hour.
Now if a class day most classes are evenings. So very little change in schedule. Only difference is try to push everything before noon. Because gives me time for school work and homework in the afternoon on class days. Occasionally have a morning class 10 or 11. So again depends on my day prior was it an off day, did I work eves, did I work days, and so forth. Also if it's a test day try to run 30 minutes. Feel 30 minutes helps my brain power before an exam.
Then things get even weirder. Usually weekends are the same as the week for my schedule. If it's a weekend off one's going to be a long run. I usually try to run Saturday. Usually am recovered if working day prior, usually. So get up at 8. Eat breakfast. Putz around for an hour. Try to get out by 9/930. Run till 11/1130. Some days I don't get out till 11. My wife understands we schedule things to do afternoon on Saturdays. Then Sunday off is usually gym early and a run early so I have the whole day to stuff and stuff with other's.
Should also mention. Trying to head out to the gym at 4am on days I work. Because after work all I want to do is shower and sleep. Have yet to master this ha.

Also weather affects routine. Normally can plan around this push a run to another day. If I move it up on a day off then have to balance it with stuff doing on day off. Weather really impacts during the Winter though. If a snow or ice storm usually will run inside. Then run inside on the second day if not stuck at work. Then if roads aren't great to run on stuck on the treadmill, which can be a pain. Having difficulty doing long runs on the treadmill.
With the Summer if it's a day on and a day after a rough eves. I run at 10 or 11 run is usually cut to 4 or less.
Like to run earlier than 630/7. It's dark out and no sidewalks to run on. In the Winter forget about it. It's dark. After a snow storm 2 lane roads sometimes become 1 lane roads with huge mounds of snow blocking views left & right ha.
Brushing teeth and showering usually hour before work. Sometimes after work ha. Then days usually before I head out and after workouts.

What time do you go to bed? Would love to do mornings but am always way too tired. Also, any family commitments?
