Day 27: Glow and Tell

I recently took a couple of pictures of my running shoes to use as my profile picture. Did I mention I really kinda wish this blog was just about shoes? The one I chose for my profile, I really like. However, I feel you're missing out by not seeing the other picture, so I share it here. They. Are. Glowing!! After a month of running, in rain, mud, slugs, gravel, grass, they are still aglow! You can kind of see them glowing in the profile pic, but not like this.



In other news, I woke up with sore knees again today. Now that I'm more comfortable with running in general, I'm going to have to get back in the grass, I suppose. They aren't bad, especially now that I'm up and moving, but I don't want to do permanent damage. My right ankle is pretty sore, today, too.

I also got to my laundry this weekend. Oy. There is nothing about reaching into a full hamper of socks and tshirts I've been running in that I want to repeat, ever. I have four days of running next week (previously it has only been 3 per week), so I should be prepared.

I wrapped up today doing the seated twist Namaste workout. Definitely tight on the right side of my back and shoulder (previously injured shoulder) - I'm sure the yoga will help.

Today was a great week. I got all my yogas in, I got all my runs in (successfully), I ate breakfast 5 days, I started the Bhagavad Gita, and have kept up with my goals for catching up to the readalong on it, I've gotten a lot of reading in on another yoga book, I finished my Blind Boone book. I swear, this is the life I was meant for. Now, who's gonna finance it?!
