Yesterday began with 10 minutes of yoga in my hotel room. If you began the 30 Day Yoga Challenge with me, you should be about 19 days in. How is it going? I love how doing just a little bit every day has made yoga a habit for me. As I'm sure you've noticed from my photos lately, I'm doing yoga everywhere!The night before I was able to get in a 10-mile run. Even after a long drive and working at the expo my body felt strong. I think it was strong because it knew I'd be a wreck if I went too long with that feel-good endorphin kick!
Yesterday was the second day of the Boilermaker 15k expo in Utica, NY. I was early so I watched the kids' race with Bobby of SPIbelt. Some of those kids were fast!
This expo was held outdoors (most are inside in auditoriums or convention centers). I appreciated the fresh air, even if we did open right after a big storm hit!
Blogging breeds friendships of all sorts. I love when my online life and real life collide!
Sarah and I bumped into each other before the expo opened. I asked a vendor, "is this vegan?" and she literally turned to me and asked if I was Ashley. LOL! Sarah set a PDR at the race this morning- congrats!!
Another fun moment was meeting sweet Kara who told me my blog inspires her. She totally warmed my heart! Kara also completed the race and wrote me: "The race went really well, but I'm just not used to that humidity! My time was 1:31, and I finished 6862 overall. I'm pretty happy with that for my first time. I really only started seriously running about a year and a half ago, so I hope there's room for improvement. " Congrats Kara!!!
I was super-excited to meet Ashley and her husband Stephen in real life! Ashley and I have chatted and I adore their blog, so it was extra-exciting :) This speedy couple blew the 15k out of the water- they're fast!
Of course Ashley and I had to seal the meetup with some yoga :)What obstacles keep you from including yoga in your daily life?
