I'm actually going to try to start working out before work. So, I will probably be trying to get up around 5:30am. If I run, I will just go it from the front door. For the gym, I'll ride my bike (once I get it hopefully next weekend) and get ready there since it's on campus. That will mean earlier to bed, but that's ok.
