Well, it's come to this. Today I took a yoga class. Yes, you heard me.. a roll out the mat, breathe, say ohm, breathe, and stretch the bee-you know whose - us out of my hamstrings, yoga class.
But the teacher's name is "Jubilee" . How bad can it be?
Not bad, and I will go back. "They", everyone, the magazines, coaches... all say take yoga. It really helps, especially if you are a runner. And since I'm on a leave of absence from running, I might as well give it a shot. I do have some flexibility issues. And I do believe it will improve my overall strength.
Gina and I did a heart rate threshold test on the bikes yesterday. Basically you ride at a HR you think you can sustain for 20 minutes, rest 5, then do it again. It should give the coach and us some info for bike training, and how to pace our ride and run during the half ironman. I'm sure we'll re-test in a month, as we get fitter. And realize how hard we can ride. Let me know if you want me to post all the #'s.

OK there are a few things I never thought I would see in my lifetime...Monkeys...yoga, etc. Next stop is the Ashram in India to seek your spiritual guide. Can I come along?
You know I'm just jealous...all tied in knots in So-Cal, T
Dear Lord what is in the water out there on the Left coast??? You need to come east, we will get a Gennee, a cheese steak, and drive around the beltway twice. That will get you back on the Right side of the tracks!
