Ran 5k on the treadmill again today, after work, 9 minute average miles then about a half mile of cool down for a total of 3.65 miles, no tibia pain again.

Yoga

Went to 4:30 class with a guy instructor for the first time. Got up and down on both sides of toe stand (not easily) and didn't have as much trouble with camel as I usually do.

Went to 5:30 spin class at Scottsdale gym with a extremely hot instructor named Jaie J. She had her mom there for mothers day and she picked all the music, mostly CCR. Not a particularly tough class tonite.

Gym run !!

Went to the gym at lunch today, and just for the hell of it got on the treadmill to see if my leg still hurts. 5k later my tibia hadn't hurt at all, I was very happy. Did some core and yoga postures after that.

Yoga

Went to yoga this morning, the fronts of my ankles hurt like crazy, particulary on Supta Vajrasana, I had to sit it out. The instructor just told me to chill afterwards, said it was probably a side effect of being a runner.

Spin

This morning went to class at the Gilbert gym. Christi was back from Hawaii and we did some intervals that totally kicked my ass, my pulse got up to 175 bpm, which is way higher than I have ever seen on the monitor, above 100%.

Spin

After work went to a spin class at the Chandler gym. Same sort of layout as the Gilbert gym, but the bikes are in the regular group room, so you have to roll the bikes out into the middle of the room. Anyway the instructor was named Kim and she was cool, we raced across America.

Yoga

Caught a Bikram yoga class at 4:30 today, was a little late which totally sucked. On the other hand I got dizzy and nauseous a couple times and felt totally stoned when I got out of there, which totally rocked.

Gym lunch

Went to the gym at lunch, did elliptical and core exercises.

Spin

This morning went to the 9:30 class at the Gilbert gym, instructor named Rebecca. Was a good class and she played some good music, I'm gonna try to make her classes.

Bikram yoga

Yesterday morning went to the 8am yoga class, the last day of my first week unlimited. I bought a 25 class block so I guess I'm committed now. Good class, felt great afterwards.

Racquetball

After I picked up Jordan from school we went to the gym for one tepid game of racquetball before he said he was tired and that was that.

Bikram yoga

This morning the doctor told me if I had ANY pain I shouldn't run, not exactly what I wanted to hear. I guess I'm going to have to dial the running way down again. After work I went to Bikram yoga again, it seemed a little less painful than it was Sunday, the camel posture kicked my ass again tho.

Spin

After work went to a spin class in the N. Scottdale gym with an instructor named Anne. The bikes were twice as nice and newer than the ones in the Tempe gym. I was lucky to be there on endurance day, the class was one big hill, seated 60%, standing 80%, over and over.

Bikram yoga

This morning went to a yoga class at the Bikram yoga Tempe place. That is one hot and brutal workout, I got extremely woozy during the camel pose, actually had to stop for a few seconds. I lost like 5 pounds of water weight.

Spin

This morning went to Heidi's spin class. I had a real crappy bike, I wish they would maintain them a little better. If that keeps up I'm gonna go to the Gilbert gym, their's are much newer.

Ringtail backwards

After work I ran the Ringtail loop in the opposite direction, that long uphill climb was brutal, but it sure was nice out.

short Scoreboard

Ran the approx. 2 1/2 mile route from Horizon park to the Notre Dame scoreboard at lunch today, much easier, faster and less painful than the last time. After work tried to go to spin class but traffic conspired to get me there after the class was already full.

short golf sign 2

At lunch ran from Horizon park to the second golf sign, approx. 3.8 miles. The new trail shoes I bought felt pretty good.
