1. sustained elevated heartbeat is what gets you into shape. Aim for long slow runs over erratic runs with walking mixed in.

2. if you are doing this as a lifestyle thing, I commend you. If you are an early riser, 5am runs are the way to go. However, find a running schedule that is sustainable. If you find yourself struggling to keep at the morning runs, adjust your schedule into one that allows you to be routine.

Best of luck

There is a legend about a certain species of caterpillar that can only cross the threshold of metamorphosis by seeing its future butterfly. Proletarian subjectivity does not evolve by incremental steps but requires non-linear leaps, especially moral self-recognition through solidarity with the struggle of a distant people, even when this contradicts short-term self-interest, as in the famous cases of Lancashire cotton workers’ enthusiasm for Lincoln and later for Gandhi. Socialism, in other words, requires non-utilitarian actors, whose ultimate motivations and values arise from structures of feeling that others would deem spiritual. Marx rightly scourged romantic humanism in the abstract, but his personal pantheon—Prometheus and Spartacus, Homer, Cervantes, and Shakespeare—affirmed a heroic vision of human possibility that no longer seems to have any purchase in our fallen world.
