XT, XT

I did 2 XT's today...played tennis and then went to yoga. (after a shower, of course) Enjoyed the yoga much more because I lost "bad" in my tennis match. My partner and I just could not get it going today. Yoga is very challenging for me because God made me with short everything...short stature, short trunk, short legs, short arms, and of course short muscles that are resistant to stretching. When everyone else is stretched way down over their feet, ole Cheryl is still in a sitting position trying so hard to "get down" and it just ain't happening. I am only competing with myself there and always feel more relaxed afterwards so I plan to continue it even after the marathon. I know it is important to maintain flexibility as we age and I think yoga can help me with that effort. So, go yoga!

You obviously didn't look over at me did you? I had sweat dripping off of me as I was struggling to maintain some of those poses. I was on fire and every muscle felt like it was buring inside. I was also breathing very loud to compensate (sort of like being in labor I suppose......:-) ).

See ya Saturday!
