Corp workout and DY all levels vinyasa

Today was busy. At lunch went for 15 minutes of yoga at work, after ran for about 20 minutes, my calf started hurting again god damnit. Tonite went to yoga and had a nice class, a bit harder than the usual Wednesday class.

DY advanced vinyasa

Monday night went to another advanced class, did pretty good on the headstand if I do say so myself. Wheel with hand blocks was very nice as well.

Ziler trail at Cacapon park

This morning drove up Fredericks Pike to West Virginia and ran a trail at Cacapon State park. It was a slightly rainy day, everything was wet, and it was beautiful out. The uphill grade was tough, the downhill was sweet.

DY morning buzz

Went to class yesterday morning, feeling pretty good after boga the night before. Good class.

Winchester 3rd battlefield

After work today ran all the trails at the battlefield site, starting behind the high school. Very creepy reading all those signs and imagining what happened there. My left calf started hurt about 2/3 way thru, did a fair amount of walking and limping after that. Hard to say for sure but probably about 4 miles.

DY advanced vinyasa

Went to the advanced class last night. Not as hard as last week but there were some killer parts for sure, particularly abs.

Appalachian trail-Beahms gap to Thornton gap

Sunday morning early, drove up Skyline drive and ran a trail, out and back. Simply one of the most beautiful places I have ever run. Chilled with the deer and had a great time. Around 10k distance.

DY morning buzz

Saturday morning went to a class. It was good, not too tough but not too easy either. Went to breakfast next door after with some of the people, talked for a couple hours.

Green circle

After work today ran a short run out and back on the green circle by the wetlands. It was pretty but too short again, I'm going to have to get out of the city I think, about 2 miles.

DY yin yoga

Last night went to a yin class, lots of long held stretching poses. It felt nice.

Jim Barnett park

Thanks to some bad advice I ran an extremely short loop at this park in the middle of town. The trail was great, rolling hills thru most of it, just very short.

Dharma yoga in Winchester

Went to my first yoga class tonite at Dharma yoga. It was an advanced vinyasa class, it was very hard and long. the instructor was cool and we sat around and had tea and chatted after. All in all very cool, I found another good studio right off the bat.

Neighborhood run

Yesterday morning ran early around the neighborhood. A more or less rectangle with the apt. at the center, about 4 miles.

Bona Dura Sanctuary

At the end of the second day of my trip moving to Virginia, I ran in Russellville, Arkansas. This wildlife sanctuary was one of the prettiest places I have ever run, a very middle earth looking place. It was humid as hell out and I sweat like crazy, Serendipity loop was 3.526 miles.

Studio yoga

This morning went to what most likely was my last class at studio. Marco and KJ were on vacation in Puerto Rico and Stephanie taught the class. I was pretty weary from all the crap I have been doing, but the class went ok.

Beverly ridgeline

This morning ran out on the west loop, up to Beverly ridgeline, to ridgeline, javalena, and pima wash back to the car. It was a tough, hot one out today and that ridgeline has a ton of steep uphills. About 4.5 miles.

LAF yoga

I had a three day break for my trip to Winchester. This evening I went to Taylors class to say goodbye. Unfortunately she had a sub, class was way too easy.

Studio and East-west loop.

Last Saturday I did a Marco class in the morning. In the afternoon I ran the east-west loop backwards. I also managed to lock my keys in my truck and Carissa had to bring me a spare set.

Studio yoga

Last Friday went to a Studio class with Marco. I have been a little lax with posts lately.
