Okay, I've completed a full marathon in 2005 and hiked the rim of the Grand Canyon in May of 2006, so now what? Well, its no rest for the weary...so I'm back on Team in Training's run team this summer. But I'm no fool, I'm training for a 1/2 marathon this time.

New Sport, New Blog

I'm taking a little winter hiatus from the run team. I will still be at "the back of the pack", but on skis. In addition to my usual gibberish and random disjointed thoughts, I will be blogging about my xc ski training. For the winter, please check out http://tntskier.blogspot.com.

Twisted Like a Pretzel, Not!

I tried yoga today and it was quite a workout! Every joint in my body cracked during the one hour session. My TNT teammate, Erin, is a seasoned pro and she made it look effortless. I, on the other hand, felt like toppling over, or just totally uncoordinated. The instructor, Laura, is a picture of grace and flexibility. Although I felt like a total klutz, I really enjoyed the session. It was a good challenge for me and I hope it will improve my flexibility and alignment over time.

I'm trying to shake up my workout routine this winter. My focus will be more on core and flexibility, and mix it up with cardio.
