Day 3


A day full of nothing. Today to be honest I did not do much, my day started at 10:00 AM when I woke up and I immediately got out of bed and ate breakfast. After this, I immediately went on a medium-long run down my road and then went back to bed. I woke back up again at 1:00 and then watched videos of other runners explaining their diets and how they run themselves. After this, around 4:00 I went and played basketball with a a few of my friends for about two hours down at my local park. After playing basketball I headed home and rested until I went to sleep. Overall, It was a solid day but It was more of a rest day than anything else. 

Hours Today: 4

Total Hours: 16

Day 11

                                                                      Day 11 Practice marathon… Today I woke up and decided to do a sort of practice marathon, 7 miles in the morning and 7 miles in the afternoon with a break in between. Right after I woke up I got out of bed and made myself a bowl of greek yogurt and granola. After eating breakfast I went on a 7 mile run down and back up my road and it proved to be fairly easy because I hit a good runner high early on and went with the flow for the rest of the run and before I knew it, It was over. After the run, I popped back to my house and watched a few videos of other runners and made myself a...

Week 2 reflection

  I did not state in the first week the importance of music when it came to my project. Music has been a staple in my life for the past few years and I am almost always listening to music. Whether it's classical or rap, I will always listen to music depending on what I am doing or what mood I am in. At first, I was unaware of the importance of music when it came to running. I would start running but couldn't help but notice something lacking, I didn't know whether or not it was motivation, sleep or food. That was until the 4th day I brought my apple watch and airpods on my run and the impact was crazy. I remember I was listening to X-wing by Denzel Curry and I hit my first runners high. I knew immediately that the music would keep myself motivated for the rest of my senior project.  Another skill I developed in the first week that I have been acting upon is my ability to cook meals for myself that stay in line with my diet. I have made a plethora of meals during my time o...

  Weekly Reflection This was a great first week of senior project. It started off a little difficult but is getting easier everyday. I learned quite a bit this first week. Firstly, I learned the importance of a good diet when training for a half marathon. The best diet for training includes a lot of lean protein and healthy fats such as nuts and fish. Another thing I learned was the importance of consistency, as I stayed consistent throughout this first week it only got easier everyday and made motivating myself to keep running a lot easier. Lastly, I learned the importance of sleep, to keep myself motivated, my sleep was extremely important. The days I would get 8-10 hours of sleep it would be much easier to stay motivated to run and while running I would feel way more energized. I enjoy running sometimes. It's definitely nice when I feel good but when I get no sleep the night before or when I'm feeling poor it can be quite a nuisance. Luckily, everything went according to ...
