How do I wake up and workout each morning?
I've been starting a beginners running program, fifteen minutes a day but starting tomorrow I'd like to start doing it twice a day but the morning is so hard for me. I dont drink coffee and energy drinks are far too expensive so if anyone has tips or hints on how to wake up early and workout I'd appriciate it immensley.
I do go to bed quite early, around ten or so each night and I dont have to be at work till 9:30 and I usually dont wake up till nine and its hard enough to do that lol I like my sleep :D

Hey,
I think you have started something great! From my own perspective, I would like to say that it's all in the habit. Once you've established a habit of waking up at the exact same time with the same morning routine, then you will find it much more easy to wake up early every day.
I believe your body will start to adjust because it knows what time it will wake up. That means that you'll wake up more alert and fresh. But back to how you actually start this habit...
Here a here great tips for how to start waking up early and going for a run:
1. Reward Little Things - Those days you make, give yourself some reward! A great breakfast, an ice cream, anything :-)
2. Make It Enjoyable - Have fun! Once you get up, turn on some great music, live!
3. Spread The Word - Tell your friends, that always puts the pressure on. You don't want to tell your friends you had to skip your exercise because your too lazy...
4. Track Your Progress - Everyday, write down the time you got up and if you did your running. That will make it clear to you how you're doing.
5. Be Productive - Well, you're already doing this one since you want to work out :-)
I hope it helps, good luck with your running!
