Keep up running through my Yoga Teacher Training. Get a little faster, go a little further, and love it.

Keep up my love affair with the wonder of the wilderness, the strength of my own body, and the connection I find with those who share my passions.

Personal:

I'm the mother of 4 incredible kids and the wife to one marvelous warlordblade. I'm passionate about health. I'm passionate about lots of things. I'm currently in Yoga Teacher Training. I talk a lot. I love to learn. I'm happy by nature and by choice.
I don't run very fast... yet.
I don't run very far... yet.

3.5+ miles up the Freedom Hills switchbacks, north to Little Valley road, and back along a few other random trails (and non-trails), across a big dirt pit, and flew screaming with exhilaration down some awesomely steep hills. Great way to break in the new kicks. Vivo Barefoot's Breatho Trail shoes.  I wish the toe box was a touch wider, but over all a great shoe. The traction on these babies is delicious! The soles are pretty much everything I wish Altra would make just for me. :) Killer traction and adequate rock protection without compromising ground feel or flexibility. Light and lovely. They wouldn't be my pick for everyday wear, but they are just the ticket for trails. I wish I'd had them this past winter!

I thought I'd have a hard time having not run for over a week, but I felt fantastic! Had my dad adjust me yesterday (he's a chiropractor). I only had one illium slightly flared out and everything else was in line! That has NEVER happened!! Huzzah for yoga!

Morning MDR coming up!

You are making me think about yoga more than I have ever wished to, and I am gaining all kinds of new respect for it when I hear how tough but good for you it is. One day, maybe, I might try it...

Your body will love you for it!

I have to teach a certain amount of classes for my certification and I'm planning on rocking some free ones for friends and fam. I'll give you a shout out when they happen. ;)

Ooh, please do! In the meantime I'll work on touching my toes...I'm still about 6 inches away. :-)

Yay Yoga! I need more of it... I think that's part of my hip's issues...
