Training Log Archive: Sandy

Made it to yoga class this morning. Great workout - my legs and arms were beat. Good thing I've been doing a bit of yoga on my own since otherwise I'm sure I would have collapsed several times and given up.

Unfortunately, my schedule and the class schedule just don't allow me to get to classes easily.

Normal short loop. I am at a total loss to explain the time. I walked for 3 minutes at the first big hill as usual but then could not even keep jogging through the meadow. I did a bunch of walk 50 paces, run 100 type things to get through the rest of the hilly part. How could that be faster than what I did last time? And 1:15 faster.

I did hit the first hill a little faster than normal so the only explanation I can find is that when I was running, I was running faster. Perhaps yoga this morning loosened me up and allowed me to move better. But I certainly didn't feel like I was moving any faster.

Very strange.

A long hike in the Wissahickon listening to a book to help pass the time. Stopping at the gelato place also helped!

Headache and scratchy throat prompted a rest day. I think it's allergies.

Not very flexible so early in the morning. Would probably help to do this more often than once a week since I don't seem to be getting to the evening classes much anymore.

Cut the walking parts down a bit.

So wanted to stay in bed this morning but got out the door. Took a new route since I wanted something a little shorter since it did take me about 20 minutes to decide to get out of bed.

Core DVD with my own yoga stretches at the end.

TNT - Indian loop with Sandy. Walked the big hills but jogged the rest. Lots of folks out in the Wissahickon tonight. Nice dinner with Alison, John, Jim, Karl and Sandy.

Trail is pretty muddy but only a couple new trees down. The section by the stable is fenced off - not sure if it's temporary or permanent.
