I am the least flexible person on the planet… it's laughable. I am tempted to do yoga but fear it.

One time, when I was on the rowing team I was able to touch my toes. I mean that literally. ONE time. Yoga isn't too bad for non-flexible people. Everything is easy to modify and they have things like the blocks to help.

Yeah, I just need to go more regularly. There was one girl there who was so flexible and to look at her you would never guess. Sitting with her legs out in a V she bent over and could touch her nose to the ground!

Sometimes these log entries look funny. Your says walked Walking Class. So someone might think that you're still learning to walk. The other day someone told me they have an app on "how to breath". It was for meditation but that sounds funny too.

Nice Job:
Nice run. What are you doing for your 9:1 intervals? 9min at RP, 1min walk?

I do 9 minutes at whatever pace the overall run calls for. In this case, my first 7 miles called for an easy pace for my 9 minutes, then it was RP for the 9 minutes during the second 7 miles.

Thanks guys. I keep going back over the map. I'm leaning more towards I just had a really good run (still way better than as of late, but not as many miles as I thought) rather than a spectacular run. The boyfriend keeps telling me to stop worrying.
