awake at 3am for no reason

Second night awake at 3am for no reason, just lying there running through tomorrow’s calls in my head.

Started running mornings a few weeks back, skipped dinner twice this week too, so I can’t tell which one’s doing this.

Does early running mess with sleep before it settles, or is it more the food timing?

    same thing happened when I started running, took 2 weeks before sleep evened out

    same boat here but it’s not the running for me – my brain just picks job hunting to chew on in the middle of the night no matter what I ate or ran that day

    my money’s on the dinner skipping, I wake up starving around 2am if I skip

    Not buying either one – my shoulders have been tight for 3 weeks, way before any running.

    I’m up around 5am most days too, how many weeks into the running are you?

    GlowGarden said: how many weeks into the running are you – 3 weeks in for me too, and the early waking started right when I bumped up from three mornings a week to four, so it’s hard for me to pin it on just one cause either.

    Mint Condition and QuietAcre are both right, just about different things. I did early walks for a stretch years back, and for almost 3 weeks I woke up way too early for no reason at all. Totally separate winter, I skipped dinner a few nights because work ran late. Woke up starving at 2am every single time, no exercise involved.

    early runs messed my sleep up for 10 days too
