I didn't get a chance to run all weekend as I was at my brother's for his birthday and I had to leave Oxford at 6 this morning to head to London to sort out my America applications for my PhD but am going for a run first thing tomorrow morning. I've decided that if I end up in America at CalTech (one of my top choice uni's) then by the end of my first year there (preferably at the start of it) I want to be happy with my body when going to the beach. This is definitely not the case right now so I'm planning on keeping up the running while also watching what I eat. I'm also going to sub into the odd rowing outing because any exercise is good exercise! If I head to MIT (my other main choice) I want my fitness to be up so I have a good chance to get into their senior rowing squad and hopefully row the Head of the Charles. So fitness all round really!
What I'm going to try tomorrow is listening to the Michel Thomas French course while running in the morning... Its an audio course and I thought it might take my mind of the running while helping me learn a language I have always wanted to know... I'll let you know how it goes!
