Day 2 of my rediscovery of my journey went well. I ran an entire mile without stopping! Just two more of those and I can do a 5K! Woo! Hopefully, this will continue for at least the next four weeks. I'd like it to continue for more, but I'm working on a short term goal right now. This is going to be short today, but at least it's good news! :)

Um, so I ran 1.81 miles today, almost without stopping. Yeah, that happened. I seriously can't believe it. I'm now on my way to getting in shape for a 5K...on Thanksgiving. Well, that escalated quickly. This is going to be good. I can feel it. I've scheduled rec times with my suitemate every other day from 3:30-4:15. There I will try to run on the track more than I use the elliptical. I think I realize now that doing the elliptical is not as strenuous as actually running. If I listen to music, I think I can do it. Tonight, when I went with friends, we listened to music together, and it was definitely a lot easier than usual. I don't know if I just had more energy or if it was because I was running with friends, but I actually kind of...enjoyed myself. I'm going to try to get back on track with this journey. I'm going to try to post more often and keep a journal of what I eat. I'm in a health class this semester. For our semester long project, we're supposed to create and implement a behavior modification plan in which we set a goal for ourselves and try to reach that goal by the end of the semester or earlier. I'm not going to lie, I haven't been truthful at all on the assignment. Maybe if I actually start doing what I say I'm doing, I'll start making progress.

Well, my life and my journey to getting fit has pretty much gone down the drain. I've been at school for about  a month and a half. I'm taking a running class so every Tuesday and Thursday I run in the morning. I'm supposed to keep a running log outside of class, but I haven't been. I haven't had the time. I got a job! It's exciting, but it has seriously taken up the rest of my free time. I did go to the rec a couple of days ago though. I spent more time waiting for a text from a guy that I really shouldn't be waiting on, but I chose to anyway. Right now, I just want to go home. There's only one more day until I can go home. While at home, I definitely going to the gym. There's nothing that can stop me from going. I don't have to work, and I have an entire four days to finish homework and study. I'm cutting myself off from the world until Sunday night. I will be ready to go on Monday morning. I'm not exercising everyday, but I'm exercising every Tuesday and Thursday, and I go to the rec every once in awhile. As far as my eating habits, I'm just going to say this: Sodexo Sucks. They don't care about being healthy or anything. For the majority of the time I've been here, I've had sandwhiches. Lately, I just don't care anymore so I've been getting pizza. I know, it's bad, but, I'm just done.....need motivation to come slap me in the face...or behind, whichever will get me moving faster.
