I have two: Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle Pose or Cobbler’s Pose) and Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-the-Wall Pose).

My mile challenge has been put on hold due to a knee injury. I’ve had to take the past few days off, but I’m hoping to start back soon…

When my motivation to run flags, I like to watch this video. It gets me laughing and in the mood to jog.

My monthly mile challenge is going pretty well so far. Here are my times:

Monday, 10/19 – 15:50, .5% incline
Tuesday, 10/20 –  15:23, .5% incline
Wednesday, 10/21 – 14:58, .5% incline
Thursday, 10/22 – 14:16, .5% incline
Friday, 10/23 – 13:54, 0% incline

I took Saturday off because I had an intense headache all day and didn’t want to make it any worse. I’m actually considering taking weekends off for this project, because I discovered that throwing myself headlong into this challenge has made for some SORE legs! I’ve been tired all weekend, so I might just rest today and then go for it tomorrow. On days when I’ve had lots of energy, I’ve put the treadmill on a slight incline to mimic outdoor terrain — we’ll see if I can maintain that. I’m really happy about my progress, but I also worry that I’m improving too quickly and heading for a plateau. We’ll see how it goes…

I just read this book last weekend, and it’s great. A review is coming soon, but in the meantime, here’s a sneak peek!
