I decided to try to do some yoga for my cross training today. I thought it would be great to stretch out my muscles, and strengthen my core. It sounded like a great idea.
Remember back though, I broke my toe about 6 weeks ago on my dogs bone. It hasn't bothered me in weeks. I thought it was all better.
So 20 minutes in, I strike the pose shown here. My toes ached. I thought I'd push through. However, you need your toes for yoga, and mine were not happy.
The thought of running 6 miles tomorrow on bad toes made me stop yoga at 25 minutes. This stinks!
I then went outside to clean out my gardens. I cut back all the leaves from my plants to make the spring growth healthier and greener. It was a great time out there, cold, but good. However, 3 hours after yoga, my toe still ached.
I talked to Greg about this and he suggested I wait and do my run on Sunday. If I run tomorrow, I may just make it worse. Taking a day off sounds like it will be best in the long run. My toes are taped back together, and I'm back on Motrin. Sunday looks like it will be a much better day.
