foot pod/accelerometers

I'm considering investing in a gadget to measure distance/speed while running. With the new foot pod technology, a slew of products is on the market with 97%+ accuracy: Polar S625X, Nike Triax Elite and other models, and the FitSense FS-1

mixed astanga with tina

Yesterday, wednesday, I went to Tina's Mixed Astanga lunch class. What an amazing workout: I was sweating like crazy. Not as much as Bikram's but still, this was in an air-conditioned room.

Also, at Monday's dance rehearsal, the barre workout, although only about 30 minutes long, made me sweat much more than usual. I suspect Bikram Yoga altered my sweating pattern somewhat. Anya says this is a good thing.

eyes getting better

i think my eyes are getting better.

yesterday, I did a 30 minute run during lunch time and I did most of the breaks and micro pauses recommended by Workrave. I got off work at 18:00 and walked about 10K at a fast pace. Then it was Krishna Das at 20:00. More on that later. End of the day, I'm feeling great and my eyes don't hurt nearly as much as they usually would.

Yoga at work

Today was the 2nd time I went to the SundariYogaStudio for the 1 hour lunch time session. This time, it was Mixed Ashtanga. It's nice. I especially like the studio's loft design with high ceilings (naturally) and the skylight. Another bonus: it's only a 3 minute walk from the office.

Going to Bikram's Hot Yoga later at 18:30
