Spring Cleaning from the Inside - Day 1

Hi Guys - Happy Monday :)
 
London weather is continuing to improve and although it's still quite chilly, the sun has been shining and it got me thinking about Spring - fresh starts, new beginnings and regeneration.
 
As some of you may know, I'm going to be running Race For Life in a few weeks. It's a charity race for Cancer Research UK and all the sponsorship money goes towards research to fight Cancer, as well as helping sufferers and their families.
 
Thoughts of the race, coupled with the first signs of Spring - blossom on the trees, Daffodils, birds singing - got me thinking about how important it is to continuously aim to better yourself, both inside and out. So today is Day 1 of A Brand New Me :)
 
I'm aiming to become happier and healthier everyday, and I hope you'll come on this journey with me! But this isn't just a quick-fix for Spring - this is a lifestyle choice that I hope to keep permanently!
 
 
As today is Monday (oh, what joy) I thought I would ease myself in gently; I started the morning with a 3K run and a half-an-hour swim. I also had the yummiest smoothie from a bar called Zest - it was called Acai Antiox and was jam-packed with acai berries, raspberries, strawberries and apples - plus an anti-oxidant booster. Get. In. My. Belly.
 
(The big "3" on the cup means I bought the Fat-Pants size (don't judge me) but it was so yum, my self-control did a running jump straight into the cup - oopsie.)
 
Are any of you 'spring cleaning' your life like I am? I'd love to know what tips and tricks you have!
