Yoga with friends

It is not quite as fun as words with friends but it is way more rewarding.today was the last day of my recovery week and it ended with the same disk it started with...Yoga X. Like I have been saying this week my wife decided that she would do it with me and. We went up to the bonus room around 9 am to get it done. Whitney was able to do about 40 minutes if the DVD before she had to stop. Before you start judging, it had nothing to do with her ability or fitness level it was because Yoga X is hard enough to do on its own and becomes even more difficult when you have a 35 pound 2 year old handing you crayons and climbing all over you. Rather than hurting herself she decided that she would stop and keep Haley entertained so that she would not get in the way of my finishing the disk. I need to tell Whitney this but having her in the room with me meant a lot and it really pushed me to hold the poses longer and stretch further than I have been. I really think it paid off because I was sweating harder than I ever had by the end of the disk and was able to stretch further by the time the disk was over than when I started, I guess you can say she was my McMuse. I am thinking of getting off the fat shredder diet a day early since I really need to start training for this half marathon. I had pretty much no energy by the time I finished lunch today and ended up falling asleep on the couch for a little bit. Even though I know I needed it I was not very happy with myself about it because I missed time with Whitney. I didn't miss any with Haley since we put her up for a nap and she didn't sleep. Tomorrow I am really going to have to push myself I have only four weekends to get ready for this run and right now I don't think that I am even close to it. Tomorrow I am going to get up and run 5 laps around the neighborhood that should be around 7.5 to 8 miles. I don't care how bad it starts to hurt or how slow I am going at the end of the run I am going to finish it because I know that I can. Take a look tomorrow or Monday to see how the run went. Forgive any typos this is another iPad post.
