I ran today. It was nice. Despite the phlem-coated lungs and the tired self, I went a little over 20 mins. It was the most beautiful sunny day and felt invigorating to move! My cushy new adidas shoes were great cushion and as I ran I thought 'squeeze butt, squeeze butt.' My Chiropractor would be proud, and I think she is on to something because I notice a difference from walking & running with I focus on my glutes. Hopefully its just the tip of the ice berg. For now, I'll content myself with the occasional 20 min run.
After running I did my 'tribute to the psoas' class done by Tiffany on Yoga Glo. The first time I did this class about a year ago it opened up my entire world. A body part I knew little to nothing about was/is a big part of my back pain. Yet,I have neglected to take this class regularly.
Thus...my plan is as follows; every time after I run (at least for awhile) I do my 45 minutes psoas opening class. I hope this aids in recovery and enables me to run more.
Yay for running. You look so sporty! I like your plan for self care after running. It is so true that consistentcy is hard even for those things that are goos for us. Maybe especially for those things?!
ReplyDeleteI second the sporty comment. So cute! I want to try psaos yoga!
