An annoying realization ..

… I spent 3 hours driving today .. where to? Just 3 normal trips out of the house. UGH .. half hour to and from the dog park, then a half hour to the bank/mailbox/visit Keri with another half hour back, and a half hour each way to the gym .. yep 3 hours in just drive time. That’s a trip to south florida .. or back and forth to Orlando with an hour of shopping! Usually I plan my trips out better then today .. lumping as many errands together as possible. Looks like I need to pay attention to my schedule a little more :P That’s what I get for moving to the middle of nowhere.
On a more positive note .. my workout tonight was awesome. I met Nikki at the gym before yoga so that we could get some cardio in .. 20 min on the treadmill just flew by. Then the yoga class was hardcore. Lots of strength building, which I’m not really used to in a yoga class. There were still plenty of deep stretches, she just made you hold the poses a little longer and add in push ups and other tricky things. Plus she used Jack Johnson as the background music .. so that was awesome. I would’ve liked a little bit of meditation at the end of the class. My old class we used to lie in savasana for like 5 min and she’d guide us through a little meditation. I found that really helped me clean my head out. I could probably do that for myself when I get home though. Its just a little easier to clear your head when you can focus on somebody else’s words and not your inner monologue. I’m totally looking forward to Friday’s class, though I’m not looking forward to the pain I expect tomorrow, but, its a good pain :)

    Seriously, that yoga class was ridiculous. My triceps were screaming at me the entire class. I’m hoping they won’t be too sore on Friday to go back!

    I can’t wait to do yoga again. I have never done THAT much strength training in a yoga class. Now pilates…

    Wow sounds like you had a great workout. Good luck sticking with it. I’m getting so pumped up reading about all of you guys working out. I’m having a hard time lifting myself off of the couch now so doing a pushup sounds super intimidating!
