Yoga Yoda Yogurt

Matt just did a yoga video with me. For his height, he did very well! I like yoga because the moves are [ideally] smooth and not as bad for my knees as running.

I signed up for the Corvallis Fall Festival 5K, and have been running a lot to prepare. I'm making progress! I enjoy being in shape; it's getting there that makes me want to DIE. I was running every day last fall/winter in preparation for the wedding and was really proud of myself. I took a three-month break to move, get married, get settled, watch Netflix, etc. Now I'm running half the distance and at a slower pace. Ugh. But I'm pushing it. Working hard. I know I can do this. Hopefully I won't pass out next weekend! I do feel pretty motivated by my parents, who both keep themselves in shape, and Kristen Courter, who completed a triathlon yesterday. I'm envious and motivated.

Unfortunately, my knees are arguing with me, hence the break from running and foray into yoga (just for today). Back to the dreadmill tomorrow!

I'm also very excited because the shoes I wanted so badly last fall from Lands End are now only $10. I am SO excited!
