This put things in perspective. Even 30 minutes a day can make a difference :)

OMG I can not wait to go to the gym.
My schedule is really awful. I work Sundays from 9:00-5:30pm and Monday-Wednesdays from 12:30-9:00pm and my gym closes at 10pm so by the time I get home the gym is already closed. I have a REALLY hard time being productive in the morning. I was going to go today morning, but I went to see the avengers last night and only got home around 1:30am so there was no way I was going to wake up early to go. I was going to go tomorrow morning, but I have to go gift shopping for a couple of people at work, therefore I can’t go before work. God, this is getting awfully complicated.
I just need to get used to waking up SUPER early and going because my gym opens at 6:30am and I’m sure it’s empty at that time. Hopefully, Thursday I’ll end up going I have the day off then.
Running is running. It hurts, but that’s all it does. The most difficult part of the training is training your mind. You build calluses on your feet to endure the road. You build calluses on your mind to endure the pain. There’s only one way to do that. You have to get out there and run.

Via LYC.So one fundamental attitude shared by Buddhism and science is the commitment to keep searching for reality by empirical means and to be willing to discard accepted or long-held positions if our search finds that the truth is different

Triton: The Outer Most Ocean in The Solar System
A new day dawns on Triton. It’s going to be a cold one, much like the last. And the one before that… and every day since the moon settled into its present orbit around Neptune. Even the volcanoes here spew out cold gases and liquid water rather than hot magma. But below the frigid surface, which registers a temperature of -235 °C, there’s something more clement: a liquid ocean.
At first glance, Triton seems to be just another icy moon – a featureless, barren world spinning around Neptune, the outermost planet of our solar system. But Triton is different.
For one thing, it orbits Neptune backwards, moving in the opposite direction to Neptune’s rotation. It’s the only large moon in the solar system to do so. Satellites can’t form in these “retrograde” orbits, so Triton must have begun life elsewhere before being captured by the gas giant. It looks a lot like Pluto, and probably came from the same place – the inner edge of the Kuiper Belt, close to Neptune.
The Voyager 2 spacecraft flew past Triton in 1989, sending back images of the moon’s frozen surface. They revealed signs of cryovolcanism – the eruption of subsurface liquids which quickly freeze when exposed to the cold of the outer solar system. As such, Triton joins a short list of worlds in the solar system known to be geologically active.
Its surface ice is unique, too: largely composed of nitrogen, with some cantaloupe-textured terrain, and a polar cap of frozen methane.
One of my favourite poems, alongside W.H. Auden’s ‘Stop the Clocks’, e.e. cumming’s ‘I carry your heart with me’ (stock standard everybody’s favourite poem but I’ve loved it since I was 14) and various Shakespeare sonnets.
