I haven’t done a 2-a-day workout in a few weeks, so decided to re-embark upon that today, but not in my usual fashion.  In other words, I didn’t run.

We recently joined a gym that offers child care, so today I decided to take advantage of that and try out a fitness class.  Pilates was on the schedule, and as you all know, I love Pilates!  I usually do an in-home practice, but really enjoyed taking a group class for once (and one that I wasn’t teaching).

As for the day care situation, it wasn’t nearly as hard as I thought it’d be.  I had already dropped Riley off a few times so I could run, so had already become comfortable with the employees.  The first time I used the service I just didn’t let myself think too much about it.  I made sure I was fully ready before dropping her off and then, after doing so, I walked out, started my Garmin, and got running.  Now don’t get me wrong, the second I was done I booked it back to the room to check on her, I am human after all!  She was fine.  In fact, I have one of those kids that runs away from me to go play.  I kinda wish she were clingy, but I know I should probably be thankful that she is so outgoing.

Sorry, in typical Monica Christie fashion i’ve gone off on a tangent.

Workout #2 was the YogaSPIN class I teach every Wednesday.  I love instructing this class because I get in a workout too!  Today we definitely did just that.  Here was today’s playlist, for both yoga and spinning.

For the yoga portion of this class I do show form, but do not do every move/pose, I tend to walk around and adjust people as needed.  Today I stayed in half-pigeon along with the class and felt like I could’ve stayed there forever.  Good thing I got up, or else I might have fallen asleep right there.  I wonder if an instructor has ever done that, fallen asleep in class?  Could you just imagine?!?!
