i attended a yoga-for-runners workshop today. thank you for your helpful commentary; i went to a studio instead of a gym, told the instructor it was my first time, had a great mat, worked my it-band and even said namasté. except, anna! i forgot to wear a tight shirt and that was, indeed, a problem. oh well.
anyway. that might have been some of the most challenging three hours of physical activity i have ever encountered. going from downward dog to the plank to this that and the other thing is some tough stuff. AND THE BREATHING. i knew it. i knew i would struggle with the breathing. and that's supposed to be the most important thing. again, oh well. it will come with practice. right?
what i learned:
child's pose is my favorite.
i should take a basics class next time.
a tight shirt is a must.
the word yogi makes me smile.
yoga makes me sweat more than running.
