Tuesday and Wednesday!

Alrighty - due to scheduling I didn't post yesterday a.m. Bad me. So here is the post for yesterday ANd today!! YAY me.

Tuesday: 4 quick miles on the track. I say quick, not because I suddenly developed super speed, but because I was on lap 12 before I knew it, then lap 14... by then I was just having so much fun just from surprise that my run was going by so quickly.

Then I came home to Deni Preston's Yoga focussing on backbends. Gotta loves those!! Mmmmm yummy!

Wednesday: 5 lovely miles on the track. I've been surprised at a few things I've found on the track. 1 - very few people get on it for very long. 2 - No one stretches out for more than a minute or 5 before getting in their car. 3 - most people out here are walkers. That's all cool and everything. I was just surprised. Well, the not stretching isn't cool... I would be soooo sore if I didn't stretch! I only stretch for about 10 minutes on the track, but then I come home and do an hour of yoga, getting warmed up again and stretching... because almost all of yoga involves stretching some parts of the body. And if I didn't do that - it would hurt so much the next day. I am finding however that I haven't been sore yet. I've had a little twinge here and there in my knees, so then I'll use my cho strap the nxt day and be mindful of my fott placements on my runs and engaging those tooties muscles as I run... but overall really no soreness to complain of.

The run was lovely. Really it was. I can tell already that my body is acclimating to the longer distances really well, as they get easier and feel faster with time.

Then I came home and did Yoga Basic Flow with Deni! I love this dvd set. It is so great to have Deni in my living room every morning helping me to pull in my bandhas, keep my dristi, be mindful of my alignment, etc. I just love the wonders of technology sometimes.

I hope this day brings you all peace and contentment. Bright Blessings, you lovely people!!

Namaste.
