The idea of getting up early may not appeal to all - it didn't to me at the beginning. Little did I know that going for an early morning walk would quickly become a welcome start to my day. Instead of waking up bleary-eyed and desperate for my first coffee, I almost sprang out of bed on the days when the sun was shining.
I've kept up this routine - getting up with the larks and often pulling on my best walking shoes before my neighbours have opened their curtains - for the last two weeks, and I can't believe the benefits I've found.
