A home practice is much easier to fit into my schedule than classes. Although I do love classes too! It looks like I'll get to go to yoga classes again starting next week - woo!

I have a 30 minute routine for stretching after running and it's amazing. My yoga class hasn't fit into my schedule recently, but I'm looking forward to getting back to it soon.

I found yoga to be wayyyyyy harder than I thought it was. Man that make you stretch in places I never thought you could...

Got 6 in today. Ran at a good pace, breathing was good. Stayed right around 11:00/mile which is where I want to be. Not running for 4 months has really been a challenge. Hard to make myself run that slow but I know its not a sprint....I ran my latest half at 9:28/mile but 1 serious injury later, those numbers seem far fetch...my legs are not loving me right now..nor my toe nails..lol

hint don't look at the markers saying how many K or miles you have gone. it can play on you. never look at the 21k marker for sure. i did once and all that I could think was if only I did the half i be coming in and oh my god I still have 21 to do. it can be a real head game. I can promise you when you hit the wall push through it and somehow once you push through it you get your legs back and start to feel good again.
Running in the water is a good way to train also. I damaged my knee while I was training for a 50k race and had to take a to the water for awhile and it worked. It is harder than you think but you are not putting any weight on it. Just make sure you have a the belt around you so you don't sink. stay in deep end

Monday 60 minute run which I did and the weather was perfect to but out there running
