I haven’t run now for 2 weeks 😱 due to ice and snow 🥶❄️🌨⛄️, and on the one hand I feel guilty; on the other I see some people slipping outside our house and rather feel justified. But there are certainly two types of gremlins fighting it out 👺🧚🏻♀️ in my mind and every day I wake up and think ‘do I dare’. And then I cannot tell anymore if I’m just procrastinating or if I’m rightfully cautious. 👺🧚🏻♀️
So in the meantime I’m rowing (Indoors) and doing Yoga.
But I also finally tidied up some book shelves, and re-found my favourite stretching book that got me through my younger days with all my cycling and tennis.
I don’t think it’s in print anymore, and when I started running, I actually looked for an Bob Anderson app 🤣 ,- to no avail. Although a classic, in popularity it probably has been overtaken by various stretching apps on smartphones , but I have yet to find an app that in such detail describes each individual stretch, suggests various stretch routines for all sorts of activities and is structured so well, that you will always find the right routine very quickly. It was my Yoga before I started Yoga. It was my flexibility reference before the age of Youtube and iPhones.
So here my thanks to the author and illustrator, husband and wife team, Bob and Jean Anderson.
Happy stretching everyone!
