Incremental progress
“exercised 28min total, 8min running, 1.5min max run.”
Well it certainly doesn’t look very impressive when you put it like that, running app. Maybe I should add some exclamation marks? Anyway, I’m still only on week 2 of the 8 week running program, I’m still running in my Merrell “barefoot” shoes, and I’m still pain-free, so that’s pretty amazing progress for me.
I think I need to suck it up and get back to yoga though. My excuse (I’ve gained a little weight and all of my yoga clothing has become really tight and uncomfortable) sounds pretty lame even to my ears. I either need to grab some bigger clothing from target (or wherever) or just deal with my tight clothing. Or I could just do yoga in a t-shirt and basketball shorts. I mean, honestly! Sheesh.
On the functional medicine side of things, I’ve finished up my 2-month supplementation of serine (which I was deficient in) and I’m on my second bottle of vitex. I’m still chugging away on my zinc supplementation, and I’ll get my levels checked again probably in mid-summer. I don’t really like taking lots of supplements, but I’m happy to be targeting specific deficiencies instead of just guessing…
