Under 3 – Fifth week of training

Time flies, another week of training in the books. A lot of rain during all sessions except for my long run of 22 K . Lucky me. I am getting in my stride a lot better. Hart rates are down , also when running higher paces. Which is great but the biggest win this week is getting a sense of rhythm. It all feels lighter, simpler , there is less need thinking about where too put my feet. Also my posture is improving slowly.

I am thinking this is down too Yoga, which has a lot of focus on breathing and maintaining the right or better posture. It has me convinced this is a very good addition, which as a very nice bonus also incorporates a lot of strength training. I must admit I always found yoga a bit out there , not for me. But that’s changed a lot. It’s just very beneficial for your mind and body.

I am nowhere near performing all the poses and transitions in a smooth way, but who cares. I am surprised at how fast progression is actually made , even by me. I would encourage anyone to give it a good go for a longer period, just too see how it affects your body and mind. It takes a bit of getting used too but the benefits will show themselves pretty quickly.

Hopefully this week will be as good as the last.
