Day 1: 3 miles

I thought summer training was difficult because its too hot at night to run. So I switched to morning runs and now that I am used to morning runs... fall is here... and so is the darkness! I went to bed at a relatively decent hour, 11 pm, after studying for my final this Thursday, so I woke up at 5:50 am relatively easy. You like how I say relative? Even though I am a morning person and I did get a lot of sleep; it's still super difficult for a person like me to get up in the morning to run. However, I tell myself it is worth it and I will regret not going but I NEVER regret completing my run/workouts. This is what you must do to get get going. Once you get going and it becomes part of your routine its like eating meals -- you just make it part of your day. I know everyone is able to accomplish anything they put their minds too!!

 After my run, I am famished. I make myself something hearty for breakfast. I am totally a creature of habits and this is my typical breakfast meal. I will only post meals that vary. So if you do not see any more breakfast meals for a while - you can guess I'm eating the exact same thing: oatmeal, 3oz of egg whites and 4 pieces of turkey bacon. In my oatmeal I put in teaspoon of each: hemp seeds, stevia, flax seeds and chia seeds. I love oatmeal because its so versatile, you can add savory items and make it hearty. You can add sweeteners - honey, brown sugar, sugar with some fruit to make a sweet dish. Its amazing! I like to eat foods that make me feel satisfied but doesn't make me feel sluggish.

See you on Day 2!
