Today's Plan: weights and yoga
One more note about balance: used to be that when I ran I would get pains on the inner shoulder blade muscles. That has not been a problem since I started the weights. I do a lot of back exercises, at the suggestion of my massage therapist. We use our arms going forward so much that we don't strengthen our back enough. I added a rep to my lifting today. I think I have been doing the same thing for for too long and needed to step it up. I find that with my running too. My times get slower since I don't push. Question is: do I care? Running is a joy, and while I definitely want to do more races and I am a rather competitive person, I want it to stay a joy. I figure this is a good time to work on distance and next spring I will worry about speed. Sounds like a plan :)
