MON: Just a 1 mile walk, but oh what a mile!
I attended an AMAZING posture workshop this weekend taught by Esther Gokhale. She was a presenter at last year's NYC BFR and she and her daughter have presented at Mark Sisson's PrimalCon for the last 2 years. The workshop I attended this weekend was a 9 hour intensive program and I learned so much! I highly recommend her book and workshop. I'm hoping to set aside some time later this week or next to write a more detailed review of the workshop.
Today instead of a run I went out for a 1 mile barefoot GlideWalk (the walking method Esther teaches) on the trails. WOW! My foot shape, balance, leg muscle activation, body position are all different with this method and it feels much more stable and powerful. I'm using muscles I didn't even know I had and it's quite the work out.
Peace,
Karen

Looking forward to your report, Karen, especially since I will be starting out as a walker again.

Chipotle is never a fail!
Chipotle is never a fail!
2 mile walk for me today.
At some point I'm sure all this new posture stuff will be second nature but for now it's like learning to walk (and sit and stand and lie down) all over again.

Dog was making noise and
Dog was making noise and freaking out until I took her on a run so we did 1 slow mile. Kind of a mistake. Twisted ankle and knee need a bit more rest. Hopefully doc says all is good to go Thursday and I run some at a barefoot running clinic in Austin.

3.48 miles of hill repeats
3.48 miles of hill repeats with my son in his stroller. Not sure if it's the new diet or what exactly, but I felt very strong and had lots of energy. I was actually getting faster with each repeat up... Oh and it was 41 degrees F today and wet as all get out and I was stripping out of my long sleeve shirt and gloves.
