Today's Plan: unknown
So this is a tricky subject. I am a female, and that means one week of the month I am not myself. Aside from any jokes you would like to insert here, I am tired. Also, my GI tract, never particularly happy with me, becomes quite snarly. It causes a reverse in my normal run: I feel ok the first mile and everything after that is painful. Which means I get out there and it's a battle to get back.
But I am also quite contrary by nature. Mary has nothing on me. I did take Monday off and I wasn't willing to take off any more days this week.
It's an odd truth that exercise can revitalize you when you are tired--if you can only start--and also help stimulate the GI tract. I decided to do some groundwork with Charby first, then some yoga after. The groundwork went fabulous, she was really paying attention and enjoying herself. We did turns, halts and I ran short bits while she trotted. Will it be weird if I run with a horse instead of a dog?
Feeling chuffed, I came in and did some yoga aimed at my abs. I don't have a six pack, and I don't think I ever will. But I have a bit of definition, so that is good enough to me. I firmly believe a strong core is, well, the core of any sport you want to do. It can prevent a lot of injuries, and, frankly, it just makes one feel good.
