When people get an email from me at 5:30 in the morning, they’ll often respond, “what are you doing up so early?” Or, for people who knew me in College, their inquiry may be “why are you up so late?” Well, I’m here to satisfy the insatiable curiosity that exists around my sleeping patterns.

I’m usually out of bed by 5AM, and between 5AM and 6:30AM I’m responding to email I could not get to in the previous day, checking out the news headlines pertinent to Internet marketing, and reading the Times.

At 6:30, the fun begins. I trek out to Lexington for an hour of intense workout with this man:

You guessed it, my trainer and conditioning coach. Vod trains me like a boxer. Running, hitting the heavy bag, doing hundreds of push-ups, sprints, and all of the fun stuff that you want to do at 7AM in the morning.

It’s actually a lot of fun once you start building your endurance up. I’ve been doing it for 6 months now and have seen incredible results. I used to have trouble running 5 feet, and now I can run 5 miles. I used to have trouble doing 5 push-ups, and this morning I did one hundred. I’ve worked with several trainers in my day, and I’ve found Vod’s approach (and style) to be the best one for me. You get fast results, but it’s all about the long-term conditioning. You just have to have a little faith.

By 8:30 I roll into the office, and endure 11 hours of intense emailing, phone calls, meetings, concept developing, consulting, and more. The best thing I can liken my day to is a controlled tornado. I am very well organized but I am constantly jumping from one thing to another. My brain is constantly moving, and I love that!

I’m outta’ here by 7PM, in the city by 8 to unwind, and home by 12.

Wouldn’t trade it for anything!
