Sunday, finally a good one

Ever since my race yesterday, I have been on a roll. My energy levels are up, my mind is focused, and I'm beginning to feel like I did at the start of the year. My great race yesterday appears to have taken me out of the rut I have been in and refocused me towards school. Its also interesting what just a two-hand touch game of football can do to you also. Even that little bit of exercise that I got today helped my mood tremedously. The last couple Sundays have been rest days for me, with no physical exercise whatsoever. Today I went out on a limb and got the blood pumping, and it did wonders for me. I wholeheartedly believe in all the research that says daily exercise can improve mood. When your not exercising, you don't really notice your mood fluctuations but when you do exercise daily, and you take it away, your mood definitely suffers. The time that I lose in college by doing sports gets paid back in dividends when I'm able to be focused on school well into the night. Anybody who says that exercise doesn't do anything for them, hasn't been doing it long enough. If you stay disciplined and make exercise a part of your life, it becomes second nature for you.
