squeezing in a run

I started running last week, but then I got sidetracked when my brother came to town for a few days.  I didn't have time to run & go to yoga because I wanted to spend as much time with him as I could.  No worries, I'm back on track now.  Today I ran to and from yoga so that I could get both in during my lunch break (because I have someplace to go after work).  It was only 2.5 miles but it felt good.  It's a little tough running downtown because of all the stop lights.  I ended up going back and forth across the street or turning and running down different streets to keep moving.  When I did get stuck at a couple of lights, I did heel raises to work out my calves. 

I had a nice yoga class - it was Hatha with Diane.  I love the sound of Diane's voice - there's just something about it that puts me instantly at ease when I listen to her.  Before class I practiced coming out of headstand back into crow - I actually did it twice without putting my feet down!  I also did two headstands during class.  Woo hoo!!!  It's finally starting to become less scary and more fun because I'm gaining confidence each time I do it.
