DAY EIGHTY FIVE

Are you paying attention??? DAY EIGHTY FIVE!!!

So, the other day, when I was chatting with B2X, I told him that I was hoping to get in YogaX yesterday instead of Stretchy (for those of you who haven't read yesterday's post, I didn't do either). I felt bad that I haven't done Yoga X in like three weeks because of time constraints. You can imagine my excitement when I saw that it was TODAY'S workout! On a long weekend! When I have plenty of time!

I am being honest here, I was excited.

I did the entire thing, well, minus the shoulder stands - which I attempted. It was good to go through the whole program again. I believe I'll have one more opportunity to do it this week.

In the afternoon, I had another tennis match - this time it was for real - not just rallying for fun. (I'm in a league, I have a division ranking to at least maintain, if not beat) Anyway, I decided that since it was beautiful out, I would ride my bike. I don't have exact kilometers, but it's more than 8. So, I rode to the tennis courts, 45 minutes. Then, I sat for 5 minutes, meeting my opponent (sizing up the competition - which was bad when she said, "I played against a woman yesterday, she was good, she returned almost every thing I threw at her." That wasn't an optimistic moment for me.) Anyway, we played for an hour - and it was intense. I did a lot of running and very little scoring. Then, since I was hungry and worried about the ride home, I got on my bike immediately and headed home. Another 45 minutes with the last bit up a VERY steep hill. Over 2.5 hours of very intense working out. But, at least it wasn't my "day of rest"... Suddenly that does seem restful!
