Got up really early to be home for my husband he had to leave at 6am, of course he wasn't ready when I got home but oh well.  Ran out and back to the path.  Started really easy and worked into a good pace, leg could feel the race but I still felt good after I warmed up a couple of miles.

Nice run today! Sure great to meet you on Sat. Question about Yoga- My sister in law says that yoga is what makes me slow. Now I dont believe her. I see you do yoga and you my dear, are NOT SLOW! What are you're thoughts on the subject?

From josse on Mon, Jun 16, 2008 at 11:08:38

Slow.. no way! Some of the fastest people on the planet do yoga. I think it does just the oppisite. Think about it, if a muscle is able to stretch longer you get more power out of it than if it is restricted. And you have less chance of injuring that muscle. Beside aren't you getting faster!?! I love yoga and stretching it is the only way I am not in alot of pain from running so much.

Amen sister! That is exactly how I FEEL, but no support to my theory until now! Ok! I am getting faster and Yoga is the magic "pill" that keeps me injury free (fingers crossed) Yeah!!! I am so happy! You made my day!

thanks for your comment! you are quite the runner, with two events every month!i'm planning to run my first marathon in October, the Sacramento Cowtown Marathon. i was attracted to it because they give you microfiber shirts isntead of cotton :)

however, i've never done a half or full marathon before, so i think i should probably run a half before i do the full...

Tammy I would probably run a half before but just remeber it is all in the mind set. Half seem just as hard as full sometimes. Good luck with your training.
