Ending on a high note!

 Today felt like a Monday, minus the loads of never-ending laundry.

Thankfully, it's Tuesday but for whatever reason, I was dragging.
 

I managed to knockout 2 NTC workouts (arm definer and leg sculptor) and my #plankaday plank this morning.

However, I still felt blah. It has to be the weather. I think the high today was 25 degrees. If it's going to be that cold, then there better be some damn snow on the ground.

Here is the temperature when I got home from the rec center. That is too cold for the Southern California native.

I don't think I will ever get used to super cold weather which meant that I would have to do my runs on the treadmill.

 

I had 3 miles at half-marathon pace on the schedule. I wasn't looking forward to running on the 'mill even though it was only 3 miles, I knew it would feel longer.

I decided to go to the rec center before yoga so I wouldn't have to run after yoga. I jumped on the treadmill and got to it. 27 minutes later, I was done...yay! Now it was time for yoga, which is exactly what I needed.

I love yoga, I mean LOOOOOOVE it. It has helped me in so many ways and I have seen such an improvement in the last year. My Tuesday night class is an all levels class as opposed to my Thursday night class which is a bit more advanced.

Well tonight, Kodi, our instructor had a new balance pose for us. We worked on Bird of Paradise. I am happy to say, I nailed it on the first try! Woot Woot!!

As soon as I came home, I had to show the hubs. I'm such a nerd. So here I am doing bird of paradise:

 



It's not perfect but pretty darn close. Thankfully my phone was nearby so he was able to snap this picture.

 

My day didn't start out well but it sure ended on a high note!!

 

Do you practice yoga? Do you like the balance poses?
