Back on Track

Yes, I finally went for a run yesterday!

Only 4.5KM, but its a start.

I am feeling motivated, although I have ANOTHER cold (The third this month.).

Eating healthy didn't start until today:
I had Granola for breakfast, various fruit juices, and chicken wraps for dinner.

Sounds like a start to me!

Eating three meals a day is very daunting for someone like me, I do have days where I like to pig out, just like everyone else, but afterwards I would feel so guilty.

So, finding the right amount of food to eat a day is a task in itself.

Today was almost perfect, however, I feel very bloated and full for some reason.

Tomorrow is another running day, hopefully I can go further.

On Thursday I will be applying for some fun runs, this is to write about in my FMP.

I AM SO EXCITED!

I'm thinking of doing a santa one too, which sounds even more interesting because I get to dress up!

Anyway I am knackered from running yesterday hah.

So wish me luck for tomorrow and I will be going further and further as the first stepping stones are passed!

LIFE.

Be More Zen

According to my friend this is the way to be?

Okay so after many google searches whilst I was supposed to working, I have come to the conclusion that this could be a way to focus on fitness!

Of course, there are some rules:
Stop comparing yourself, your situation, your achievements to others. This is the best way to concentrate on yourself, and go at your own pace.

Stop judging others, whether its their actions or even the way they look.

Stop worrying (This is essential for myself). Overthinking is what my brain likes to do, which sends me into overdrive and that's when the anxiety really kicks in. 

There is absolutely no purpose of worry so: Breathe, Count to ten and carry on.

Stop blaming other people, playing the victim is often easier than taking responsibility. 

Look at the root of the cause, why are you feeling like you are?
Get to the bottom of things in your own head before you come to conclusions.

Stop competing. Obviously sport is competitive, however, if you've just got a personal best then be proud, don't get upset that it isn't as good as your neighbor.

And finally, have a laugh with it all! 

Life is fun so lets make it.

Tomorrow is my first run ah.

It's fair to say I am nervous and I may not go far but it's a start!
Wish me luck.

13. Sorry if its too late

If anyone would like to know, the race for life went really well. 
My Mum, Sister and I raised over £300.

I am very proud of everyone that completed it, whether walked, jogged or ran it is an accomplishment.

I have stopped running for the fact that I have been very ill.

My medication has been doubled, which makes me feel even worse.

But for my FMP at North Warwickshire and Hinckley College I am creating a fitness magazine.

Therefore, I will be getting back into running.

My next run will be on Monday, and I will take my new pup!

I'm so excited, I will be tracking my process on here. Including everyone's thoughts on fitness and exercise.

I'm looking forward to combining my two favourite things.

Journalism and Fitness.
