A nice easy run today to shake out my legs from yesterday’s speed work. I had good intentions of waking up and going to a yoga class this morning but Hawk decided it was play time at 4:45AM and it took me awhile to fall back asleep. So when the alarm did go off, sleep won over yoga. This is lame but after my run I did one of those 20-minutes yoga sessions you find on On Demand. I think it was called “Zen in Your Den”. Hysterical. It was super easy but just want I wanted…a nice easy stretch. My right hamstring has been a little tight and I think it’s causing me to shorten my stride a bit. Some yoga is just what my hamstring needed.
Onto some random stuff…
Total mileage for 2010 = 1,528! So I almost ran to FL and back.
Matt and I exchange ornaments for Christmas each year. This may be one of my favorites…
I think she looks like me with the exception of the hair. My hair never looks that nice when I run. It’s more like this…
Amanda Kenney says
Love the ornament and REALLY love your hair in the pic. LOL! Should have donned that style for the wedding…with a white visor of course!
Now I need to go check out my total miles. Won’t be nearly as many, but cool to see nonetheless.
Off to yoga now. Namaste.
Ruth says
I think your hair looks adorable!
Kristy says
Thanks Ruth…you are too kind!
Camille says
You are hilarious with the pictures! Love the ornament too! Do you usually go to a yoga class or do it on your own?
Kristy says
I usually do a class but it has been awhile since I’ve done any yoga.

I’ve done Zen in Your Den! I thought it was OK, but I’m by no means fit. The yoga exercise I really liked, which I don’t think is on there anymore, was Yoga Works Body Slim…very intense. I haven’t been to a strictly yoga class since one in college a few years ago, but I’m planning on going now I have a good gym membership (if I can defeat my alarm clock on a Saturday Morning :D)
I’ve been wanting to get involved in running. I used to run, but only intervals of running and walking. I love to run FAST–and I don’t have endurance. I’ve also experienced pain in my arches when I’ve tried to run. I don’t know if you have any tips, but if you do, I’d appreciate them.
