No excuses

Sun, 06 May 2012 01:18:00 +0100

Finally got out for a run tonight, following a rather lazy week. Which was mostly due to university exams, but it shouldn’t be an excuse when I spend so much time procrastinating! May as well do something worth while with the time..

So good to get out, even though it was a bitterly cold night. Only did 3km but it was a good start to what I’m hoping to make a 4-5 days a week occurrence.

It’s so true.. you never regret a workout!

Head = cleared

Now just to finish these horrible exams…

Wow, so much respect for Lush and their campaign. I don’t see how anyone could be okay with knowing this is going on everyday unnecessarily, its disgusting.

Bit of a improv dinner. Mix bean salad with courgette, spinach, rocket, onion & garlic. Oven cooked mushroom stuffed with tomato, courgette, onion, pesto and a little bit of cream cheese. It was pretty delish I must say!

Did a 3.5km run in 19 minutes tonight, not too bad.. But definitely want to improve on that! Having goals makes you so much more motivated to workout :)

Master of my own fate..

Just back from a good 15 minute run. Pretty good pace and I only stopped once, to change the song on my ipod (and for a quick breath perhaps). Although it was no more than 2°C outside and I was wearing little more than a tan top and shorts, it was oddly refreshing.

I guess I find myself tired quick often, and I’ve always blamed the fact that a 10+hour shift at work is virtually impossible for me, on my vegetarian diet. But I’ve realised that I’m the one putting myself in this position and not exactly helping beat this stereotype of weakness and constant fatigue.

The reason I’m tired is to do with not putting enough time into knowing what exactly I need to eat to stay energised throughout the whole day. I don’t always take my iron supplements, I don’t always watch my protein intake, I don’t always do enough exercise.

It’s easy enough to identify a weakness, it’s changing something that’s the real task!

Do it the right way..

So I’ve got a bit off topic recently and I’ve basically just being using tumblr to look up inspirational and motivational blogs/posts. I suppose with it being a new year and all that I’ve decided I want to put a lot more time into my fitness, as I’ve fallen behind a lot in the last few months.

From looking at numerous blogs on here it has really given me that extra push I needed to realise what I have to do.

But something that really alarmed me about some of the things posted on tumblr was the amount of motivational blogs that take weight loss and body image way too far. I came across far too many pro-ana blogs, and it seriously scared me because I could see how people could easily get sucked into this way of thinking. There are tons of teenagers lusting after these unrealistic body images.

I’m so thankful that at this point in my life I am aware that if I’m going to set goals for myself, fitness and health wise, that I have to do it the right way. It’s the same with anything really. I don’t expect results immediately. I’ve realised that 90% of it is your mindset.

SO ANYWAY!
