day 3

I cannot believe I ran 3.5 miles this morning (ran for 50 mins total). And OMG, it felt sooooooooo good! I honestly can't remember the last time I ran this many miles. Well, actually, if I think about it, the last time I can truly remember running this much was back in high school during sophomore year! That's like 9 years ago. Crazy huh? Anyway, I'm just super proud of myself. I know it's always so hard getting up in the morning, but I just know if I just get up and go, I'll be fine. It's funny how the first few minutes are always the hardest when you first start running. Lalalala... I really want to do well. I hope I do well. Wish me luck!

Now, let's take a look at what I will be eating today:
