RunningInTheMidstofChaos

May 9

I went to the master's yoga class yesterday morning and Advanced Vinyasa Flow tonight. It was 90 degrees here today and the temperature in the studio was 85. I was dripping buckets by the end of class.

I went to the chiropractor this morning and he wants me to run Wednesday morning and let him know how it goes. So this is the tentative plan for the rest of the week:

Tuesday: P90X leg video
Wednesday: Run 4 miles
Thursday: Yoga DVD
Friday: P90X leg video
Saturday: Run 6 miles
Sunday: Yoga class

Catching Up: May 1-May 7

On Sunday I went to the master's class at Zona Yoga. On Monday I went to Ashtanga FUNdamentals because I was meeting girlfriends for a movie later and couldn't go to Advanced Vinyasa Flow. On Tuesday I ran three miles and had knee pain. I took Wednesday off and then ran just one and a half miles on Thursday.

My chiropractor told me that if I had knee pain on Thursday that I should take a week off running and see if that helped things heal. He also said I should build up my quads and that should help. So on Friday I did just the leg portion of the P90X Chest and Back video. Oh my gosh - I can hardly walk this morning! I can't believe it - it's not like I haven't done any exercise since I finished P90X. I took today off to recover and I'll go to yoga in the morning.

I weighed myself this morning and I weighed in at 121.5! I'm only 4.5 pounds from my goal weight of 117. Yay!
