Stretch & Restore...Yoga..Not for the faint of heart

I am happy to say that I got off my lazy bum and went to my yoga class tonight! It was the first (for me) of a class called Stretch & Restore. Sounds calming, easy, right? WRONG! This class was anything but easy. It was, surprisingly, calming. But that might have something to do with the fact that once you've riddled your body with unnatural twists and turns, held poses until your thighs shook, and sweat in places you didn't know possible, how could you be anything but calm.

Yoga, baby!

I started a new yoga class yesterday evening, and boy was it wonderful! I was a little nervous, because I don't usually like classes. I am a solo exerciser, except when it comes to running - I love to run with a partner and talk until we're done running! LOL!

Race Day Report

I am very happy to report that the race is over!! The night before I of course got a terrible night's sleep because I was staying at my in laws house and nervous that the alarm wouldn't go off at 5:30 AM. Turns out that would not have mattered because I woke up every half hour anyway and couldn't go back to sleep at all past 4:00.

Women's Health...Painful!!

Who ever said beauty was painless must have had their head on backward! Whoever said beauty is skin deep never did a Turbo Jam workout - Skin nothing. We're talking about hitting every muscle known to women, and then some!

 

Countdown to race day!

Only four days to go until the half-marathon (which I was very unhappy to learn starts at 6:30 AM!). Last Wednesday I did my final long run, shooting for 2 hours but ending up a couple of minutes short. It was not fun at all I'll tell you that. As soon as I finished I drove straight to Whole Foods and ate about $20 worth of their hot food bar in under 90 seconds.

Half-marathon training day

So...I haven't written too much about my training for the half-marathon I am running on May 4th. I haven't really been talking much about it either, probably it is just in case something happened and my training never really took off and I had to drop out. I hate making excuses for myself. But I am happy to report that things are right on track.
