Undergraduate / 'harsh workout every morning' - Common App to Binghamton early action. [5]
Here's my advice:
While rubbing my crusty eyes, still warm and comfortable in my bed, I am over overcome with the feeling of lethargy. "Perhaps I should just tell them I'm sick." Despite all my sulking, and the magnetic pull of my warm bed, I still manage to force myself to get up every morning at this mind-boggling hour to join the track team and their rigorous workout.
Track, a sport that requires a strong body and mind, forces you to push your physical ability to the limit by testing your mental tenacity. I'm reminded everyday at practice that pain is just temporary and it's only in my head. Every day is a new struggle to surpass yesterday's misery.
In all it is a good essay. Good luck!
