Educating Enid - Mindful Meditation while I run

My inner Enid was left doing Mindful Mediation whilst I ran Week 9 Run 1. Yahoo! :-)

She enjoyed the "sitting" bit and not so keen on the stretching (apart from biscuits and a glass of wine). But I feel quite good that I can leave her thinking about these things whilst I clear my mind.

Enid is looking after herself!

Well done for doing that run. Hope it felt good!

Thank you. Yes it did feel good. But after reading your post maybe we all should be doing the Adrienne yoga sessions on the days in between. I am also alcohol free since the 1st Jan so this is parked with Enid too.

Yoga it is! I did loads of yoga which helped my knees a lot but it has dropped off a bit recently.

Me too. I did yoga regularly but stopped about 2 years ago. Rather a down hill moment. 😞So maybe if now I am back running perhaps Feb 1st should be the start of Yoga!🧘🏼‍♀️

Thank you. I do feel the more educated I get on running, healthy eating and alcohol, the easier it is to resist. But I know it is a work in progress.

Woohoo! Let Enid eat the biscuits, and you do the running 😁

Enjoy your penultimate run in a day or two, and then it’s the BIG one 👍

Thank you so much...sort of scary but I will stay on the group and do the consolidation programme. But I am going to have to drag Enid along too. 😉👍
