5-19,20-14

On monday, did the  3 mile interval in the coal lands behind the factory. Pace was modest after a tiring weekend of gardening in the sun. Still we had all we wanted and it felt good.

Tuesday was yoga day. The most demanding part for me is the 15 minutes after warmup when we do sequences of various poses beginning and ending in down dog. At its peak my arms and shoulders are screaming and I love it when we move into balance poses, marking the end of the strength phase. At the same time I like that part of the workout for the strength and joint loosening benefits I've  gotten. Even in yoga, no pain no gain.
