Inflexible!

Subject title perhaps a metaphor for something else? Had a hour of "Runners Yoga" yesterday morning at Lululemon and much to my chagrin, had some difficulty touching toes and staying put without a knee bend. Arm strength is great for the Cobras, abs are working on the Baby Cobras, but goddamn if I couldn't do a simple stretch.....my hamstrings are tight as a drum. Boo!

In other "yay" news.....Lululemon rewarded the die-hard early am Sunday yoga attendees with 30 percent off and I was *finally* able to afford running gloves and tights---both already on sale and then the additional mark-down. Yippee!

When's the next run? Wednesday!

Back on the Wagon!

It had been almost a full 3 weeks since my last run and yesterday I broke the seal, running 4 miles in the snow. It was a beautiful, if not wet and cold run. T and I jogged down to the National Mall and stopped off at the Christmas tree, now lit, and saw the individual trees of each state and territory. Tourists, flustered by the snow, were few in number and made navigating our run even easier and. despite the darkness, the twinkling of the Christmas lights and boughs of holly on the threshold of the buildings was comforting in our wake. Today, despite being Sunday, is early morning yoga where I can get a good stretch in post-run. I can't wait for those winter running tights to come!! I ran in thermal underwear with sweatpants over them yesterday and felt like the Michelin man straight outta Ghostbusters. Off to switch the laundry.....and then "Om".....
