Entry Three: Day Two

So getting up again at 5:30 this morning was kind of awful. Before the start of this week I never had a true appreciation for that one extra hour. My morning run today was a lot harder than yesterday's because my muscles were so tired from yesterday, but I made it. I upped my machine work at the gym today and I am feeling it now. So after1.5 hours of biking another 10 miles, a lot of weight machines, crunches, squats and an awkward encounter with Mr. Terzian I finally left the gym to go home. Also, I have developed a new love/hate relationship with cool showers. Needless to say after today and yesterday I am pretty sore. As for the diet, I ate a bag of baby carrots and a banana as my after school and pre-workout snack and some pasta for dinner which is not exceptionally healthy but it could be worse. I'm also drinking a lot of milk which is pretty gross so that's a big adjustment for me. I have stayed away from a lot of the unhealthy foods in my pantry so far which is really hard with a box of thin mint girl scout cookies still in my freezer. All  in all I am pretty impressed with how well this project is going. I thought I was going to have an awful time and be unable to preform to my original standards, but it feels more rewarding than I thought it would so it sucks a little less at the end of the day.
