Day 4: Yoga X


I was wrong... its 1 hour and 30 minutes of ridiculous awkwardness! As I was just about to give up on the difficulty at the halfway mark of 45 minutes, we did our last Vinyasa! On to balance poses and other stretching. I get so antsy with workouts that long, especially when I am not running or doing something to keep my attention. I don't own a yoga block, so some of the moves I am modifying the execution. I get to do yoga next week... not looking forward to it, but I hope I can be better at it next time.

I noticed a slight carpal tunnel in my wrists as I was doing multiple vinyasas and upward/downward dogs (my favorite line from Tony is "...They'll put you on the cover of Downward Dog Magazine...") and that's one of the reasons why the first 45 minutes of Yoga wasn't so pleasant. I'm very proud of myself finishing the entire workout period. It is worth it to get to all the stretching in the end.

Don't give up. Do your best, forget the rest, and remember why you started in the first place.
