30 Day Challenge - Day 1

So

Stiff
So I am starting yet another 30 day challenge, this time at the Moksha studio in Calgary. My first time here, so it's kind of exciting. I plan on making the lisping, balding French instructor my new BFF.

But this challenge is a bit different aside from the new location. This time I'm going in, not having practised much lately. It's a bit zero-to-sixty of me. I have been a little yo-yo with my nutrition and exercise lately. My new job and it's schedule, which has me working when I should be eating (that's the nature of serving I guess), just has had me all over the map. I'm drained after work, my gym partner has just gone through the midterm ringer, and the responsibility of a menagerie at home (more on that in a future post, I promise) just has meant that I haven't been getting to the gym or studio lately, and that when I get home from work, not having eaten in 6 hours, I've been tending to overeat.

Whine, whine, whine, bitch, bitch, bitch. Basically what I'm saying is that I'm being inspired by Spartan Warrior's declaration that it's No-Excuses November, and I'm jumping in with both feet.

And today, I felt it. Gym this morning, followed so necessarily by yoga. Between no yoga, no gym, and walking about in 4 inch heels at work, my hamstrings are the worst they've been since I started practising yoga.

I'll let you know how walking goes tomorrow.
