Like a (yoga) virgin, stretchin’ for the very first time! That’s what my 6 a.m. level 2 Core Power class felt like this morning. It’s been two days since I ran 10 miles and my body feels completely fine when it’s resting, but not when I am trying to open my hips, stretch my quads and bend my body. It really did feel like my first time at yoga, it was painful. I suppose there is truth behind why people pair running and yoga more often than peanut butter and jelly (or chocolate, I like that combination better).
Now that you know about today’s workout, I want to fill you in on tomorrow’s because I am ecstatic to tell you that I will NOT be blogging tomorrow. I will be waking up at 3 a.m. to get in my own yoga practice, then hopping on a plane at 6 a.m. to fly to Washington DC, borrowing my Mom’s car to drive down to Norfolk, VA, where I will (finally) get to see my fiance, Michael. It’s been 327 days since he has been deployed and six months to the day since I have last kissed him. Tomorrow starts the beginning of the rest of our lives. I am going to make the day about us, no blogs.
Next time you hear from me I will be working out on the beach with my favorite person in the world. Hallelujah!
365 Days, 365 Workouts 
Ah I’m so excited for you!!! Good luck and I’ll be thinking about you! I’m a bit sad that my meeting of this wonderful fiance will be postponed though 😉
Betsy, I’m about to cry!!! This is so exciting!!! Enjoy every moment!
WOOHOO! Safe travels! I’ll miss you! Love, Gray
so many tears when i read this… half genuine happiness, half love for the two of you, half sleep deprivation and half being bummed that i just left you and my favorite season…. so many halves… math is hard… i love you!
