So today was a busy one. In addition to day 2 of the Bikram yoga challenge, I went to a movie and discussion (Meetup) and to dinner with a bunch of like-minded exercise-type folks (Ari’s grad school friends).
Let me just say this. It’s going to be a long 28 more days. While I’m two days into the official challenge, today’s class was my fourth this week – more than I’ve done in that amount of time in over a year. My arms were sore during the entire class and my already tight hamstrings, which I’ve been blessed with my whole life, feel like they’ve shrunk inches.
While today’s class wasn’t nearly as hot or crowded as yesterday, I felt someone weak – though my balance was good. The instructors keep saying the solution to all these ailments is more yoga. I hope that’s true.
Fortunately, I have off work tomorrow so I have a bit more flexibility of when I can practice. The real challenge will come when I have to navigate classes with work and *gasp* do my first 6 a.m. class on the 23rd.
Wish me luck!
