Would you rather read to learn something new or exercise first thing in the morning?

Question

Ed Baker · Answer

Would you rather read to learn something new or exercise first thing in the morning? You know, I actually do both. For example, this morning, I went on a run, ran over to the MIT pool, and while I was running, I listened to a book on Audible. I'm currently listening to a book called The Precipice, which talks about all the different ways human civilization might go extinct. It's kind of an interesting read. Then I went for a swim and then ran back, and on my run back, I listened to more of it. So I like to run and listen to books while running.

Would you rather read to learn something new or exercise first thing in the morning? My preference is exercise first thing in the morning to get that out of the way and start your day because you can fit reading and learning in at any time of the day but it's hard to fit in exercise. So I'm part of the master's group and I love to actually swim first thing in the morning at least three days a week. It really starts my day.
