Carbohydrates,
You are my new BEST. FRIEND. EVER.
Pasta and bread, be ready to be absolutely demolished.
Sincerely,
Grace
So you know how Grace was limping like crazy? Well, she figured she wouldn't really be able to do much of yoga at all today because her arthritis was so bad. Grace was very, very, wrong. It was her BEST DAY EVER. She was amazed. She thinks it's the carbs. Really? you ask. The day after running a half-marathon? Shouldn't Grace be exhausted? Why yes, yes she should be. But apparently Bikram yoga is the most amazing thing this world has to offer. She had her best day AND she is no longer limping like crazy OR in much pain. Her hip feels completely better and her SI joints are feeling waaayyyyy better than they did before. Bikram Yoga, Grace is in love.
To those of you have have arthritis - you need to try this. Seriously.
Not only that, but Grace was super crazy energized and productive after class today. Man oh man, this is amazing!
Things to note about Grace:
- Grace needs new sports bras. Lots of them. There are just too many laundry days.
- Grace can sweat like a river now! Wooo Hoooo!
- Grace can stretch with her hands flat on the floor
- Grace's brother in law (*cough* Jordan *cough*) laughed at her for not knowing that you need carbs to work out. He is in big trouble!
- You know that box of girl scout cookies from yesterday? Practically gone. Hey, they're carbs, right? I NEED to eat them...
Oh hey, look who showed up at Yoga today....Kassy. She has been MIA all weekend cause she went to visit her family in Laredo. But she's back!! Be excited!
Today's class was the most humid, smelliest class ever. (Kassy understands that this should not bother her because people are in there sweating and getting into awesome shape all day, but she is still not a fan.) When she put her towel over her yoga mat, sweat from a previous class got all over the edges of the towel that go over the mat. Gross! Lesson learned! Get a thinner towel that does not go over the mat. Enough ranting though, that is Grace's job!
Kassy had a good yoga class, even though it was a bit difficult to jump back in after being gone for three days, Nora pushed her to do her best. Kassy is now in full swing again ready for two-a-days starting tomorrow! (Except Thursday, which she will only be at the morning class, read below to see why.)
Things to note about Kassy:
- Kassy&Grace will both be eating POLLO BOWLS from Taco Palenque cause Kassy is amazing and brought them from Laredo! (Kassy will not be eating hers tonight cause she accidentally left it in the fridge at work..boooo!)
- Kassy LOVES Mexican food! She ate more this weekend than anyone ever should! She enjoyed herself very much, but yoga today was difficult!
- Kassy's business cards came in today! They are so RAD! They are red,white and black with black edges. (Photos will be posted soon!)
- Kassy will be showing some photos at an Art Show on Thursday. (Shameless Plug!) So if you are in the Austin area, its from 7pm-midnight at the United States Art Authority [2906 Fruth St. 78705].
- Tons of awesome bands and artists! Only $2 to get it in, and it goes The Revival Fund! [The Revival Fund provides temporary financial assistance to Austin-area musicians and their families in times of crisis to help them get back on their feet and making music again.]
- Kassy had an AWESOME day and will be up and going for the 5:45AM yoga class soon.
- Kassy gets more flexible by the day. Yay for Bikram Yoga! <3
Even though its day 15, we haven't taken 15 classes. Here is the count:
Grace: 13 classes, but one of those was the really lame one where she left half-way through. So 12.5.
Kassy: 11 Classes. (... insert disapproving look here...but be super excited when she catches up this week!!! :D )
(As of today, Grace is in the lead!)
oh two-a-days, you best be ready for us. (Can you tell that is Grace's favorite phrase these days?)
You guys add a fun note to it all! Good luck with your 2 a days!
