It’s Wednesday and it used to be my Yoga Day. I used to run 3 miles and then go to Heart Space for 75 minutes of heaven. (I haven’t been since before Christmas…)

Wed Yoga with Lisa

I don’t dislike yoga but…

• This yoga class starts now at 5:45 pm instead of 6:00 pm (less time to run before class.)
• The instructor, Lisa, is on Maternity leave. (I am particular about my yoga teachers and comfortable with her.)
• The weather has been lousy this winter so if it’s is decent outside, I want to run 4 miles. (Hard to fit if I go to yoga class.)
• The class is not expensive..$15 but it adds up. (Money is tight & I want to prioritize my spending and using this money for races, travel, etc.)
• I could  practice yoga on my own… (Oh but I don’t)

What’s the solution?

Since my priority is running right now (with tennis squeezed in 1-2x a week), I will try do the following 6 yoga poses after each run:

 1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

I don’t know if I will be disciplined enough to do this each time I run. (Maybe occasionally which it better than never.)

So in the spring I may be back at Heart Space for my weekly yoga classes with Lisa.

Happy Running!  If you do yoga, do you go to yoga class or do it on your own?
