Doing What Needs to be Done

I haven't run at all this week. I've been bad. Its mainly because I just had a test Wednesday and all my free time has been devoted to that. I probally will go running Friday, but I need to make sure that I get 3 days of exercise in a week. I need to up my game.

Then I weighed myself at Publix on Tuesday...I went up 3 pounds. I'm back at 193, well at least its not my original weight. The fact that I've been so busy makes it hard for me to do everything I need to in order to lose weight. I think it all comes down to good time management.

So, now I'm going to take some steps to help myself manage my time better.
  1. Keep up with Task/Assignment List.
  2. Nightly write a todo list for the next day.
  3. When starting on homework, do the hardest task first.
  4. During tasks take 5-10 minute breaks every 30 minutes.
I believe these few things will really help me to: Know what needs to be done, have the motivation to do it, and do it.

I've already made my task list for today so I'm off to a good start.

Off to a Running Start

Today I woke up at 7 am. I managed to pull it off by leaving my car parked overnight in an area that the restrictions start at 7:30 am. That will definitely get me out of bed.

After I took my car to the garage I cam back and went running. The run was intense because it was the first time I've ever ran alone. But I did make it to my turn around spot without stopping, and on the way back I only stopped twice. This is a improvement from the last time I went running (Friday) when I stopped 3 or 4 times.

So as a summary:

Wake up early 5 days a week for 2 weeks. (1/10)
Run 3 days a week for a month. (1/12)
