Challenge Day 1

Whelp, here I am finishing up the first day of my 21 Day Challenge! If you're reading this first, here's a link to my original post explaining what it is I am doing!

Not going to lie, today was hard. I woke up with a massive headache that does not seem to want to go away.  To top that off, I just started my period (TMI? Nah!), so all I want to eat is chocolate and pasta.  Alas, I am eating lots and lots of fruits and veggies instead!

To be honest, the most challenging part of today for me was the running!  I dance close to 7 hours a day most days of the week, but the challenge of running in the gym for just 30 minutes was insane for me!  I think part of it is that I get seriously bored; I feel like a gerbil, running in place for so long!  It doesn't help that there are mirrors right in front of the treadmills, so I start making faces at myself rather than focusing on running... It's finally starting to warm up here in New York, so maybe I'll start running outside to alleviate my boredom!

I'll see you all tomorrow with another update on how I'm feeling!  Disclaimer: I just had a week off from dance, so I have a feeling that there is going to be a lot of pain and soreness related to that, as well as the running.  We shall see!

-Fly high, little birds!
