Heart racing.
Breath in. Breath out.
Sweat dripping.
Muscles tightening.
One step at a time.
Up. Down.
Left. Right.
Keep going.
My pulse is high.
My breath is heavy.
But I keep going...
One foot after the other.
One mile after the other.
The sound is almost soothing- the sound your foot makes when it hits the ground.
The sound is almost rhythmic and put me in such a Trans where I forget that I'm actually running.
Yes. Running- what else would I be talking about.
I can honestly say I've been quite dedicated to running.
Maybe not the high mileage but who's counting.
I've adopted a new routine that has assisted my running in multiple ways.
Bikram yoga... yes, I've done it before and I'm quite fond of it.
However, the benefit it has for runners is astronomical.
I can honestly say I'm not flexible- I don't do yoga well.
But its not just yoga, and its not just sitting in a sauna.
Its the two combined, the flowing of the poses, the stretching of the muscles, the ease and relaxation my body feels after is sensational.
As a runner- your body tends to tighten up.
Well, Bikram stretches those tight spots out.
The two go very well together.
Since I've signed up last month I've been able to run with ease, my recovery time after long runs have been less intense since I've been able to have a 90 min long stretch.
Another perk has been my water consumption.
You never really realize your water intake till you have to sit in a Sauna and do yoga. If your hydrated- you'll live... if your not- well, basically, you'll pass out.
It's nothing to be afraid of- as long as you hydrate throughout the day- which we all should be doing anyways.... right!?!?!
Well, I've enjoyed my experience so far and I've tried to share this with as many friends as possible.
So- I thought I'd share with you:)
Till next time,
Peace, love and happiness
