This is my lifestyle : Accomplishments

This week was full of accomplishments. I completed my week full of running and working outs, and realized how far I have come. A couple months ago I could barely run a mile. It was the hardest thing in the world, and I couldn't understand how people enjoyed running. Sunday was my first long distance run and I killed it. When I started training I was used to running 3-4 miles, but I had to go a little farther and run 5! I absolutely hated running and I thought it as a chore. The more I started to run the more I really started to enjoy it. It is the best way to clear your head at the end of the day.

Drinking water was another thing I strongly disliked. I would drink everything but water, but now water is all I drink. Drinking juice all day was really unhealthy. It was full of sugar and not good for losing weight. Water has so many benefits such as removing toxins, increases your metabolic rate and improves your digestive system. That is only a couple examples of what water can do for you. I had to make the switch so I could create a healthy lifestyle for myself. Eating healthy and drinking A LOT of water is very important when working out, and it is the best thing you can do for yourself. Today I drink a gallon of water a day and I have not felt better.

I have overcome the two things I hated the most. Today I can’t live without either one of them. You can do anything you want to as long as you put your mind to it. Of course it is not easy, but it can be done. Like anything else it takes work!

Here are just a couple pictures of my third week of training.
