Day 1 of Ultimate Frisbee

Whoa, I think I can call myself an athlete now. Guess who joined ultimate frisbee team at work? This chick right here!

Today I met Megan, (Nice) Peter, Kris, Lisa and Keri. I already knew Laurie (co-worker) and Travis (captain).

My expectations were low, and that was a huge mistake because I didn't bring a water bottle or towel. Note to self. Travis was kind enough to offer his jock strap and mouth guard. How sweet.

This is exactly the type of exercise I needed to add to my routine. Cardio! So much running. And I think I got into it a little much today. Diving and rolling around. I'm going to have bruised knees.

Another note to self: trim nails before each practice. My nails are hardly a millimeter long and they still chipped and broke.

Glad I joined. It's going to be a fun season!

Day 5 and 6 of Yoga

Missed blogging about my yoga class a couple weeks ago. Yesterday's class was much needed. Pain is mostly in upper body today, but I can tell I am improving in each area. Successfully did half moon poses but need to remember to tighten the core in each pose. Great run, though. Until next week...!
