A quarter of the way through...

Yoga: 1½ hours

So I've reached week 3 of my 12 week yoga class. Today we concentrated on our stance. Tensing the thigh muscles, lifting the tail, turning the legs in (without moving the feet). Holding and practising this position over again in each of the stages of the sun salutation. So overall a lot less intense than last week, but perhaps I'd better hold judgement until tomorrow when I'll know if any of my muscles are stiff?! I'm hoping all this stretching and breathing will enhance my fitness and limberness for my running. As well as improving my inner wellbeing...

Running 13.1 miles in memory of Carl

I ran the Silverstone Half Marathon on 15th March 2009. I managed the 13.1 mile course in 2 hours and 4 minutes. Not a bad effort for my first Half Marathon! I returned in 2010 to run it in 1 hour 54 minutes, and plan to do it again in 2011. I decided to run this in aid of The PSC Trust and PSC Support in memory of my brother Carl, who died from liver failure in November 1997. If you'd like to sponsor me for this - please email me at pscrun@ulen.me.uk PSC Trust
