Bike, Run, ICK! - 71 days remaining

Today was another BRICK workout, this one 40 minutes biking followed by 20 minutes running. That's as tough as the Brick workouts are going to get - YAY! Today's was a gym workout due to scheduling and the weather. The outdoors workouts seem to fly by as fast as the scenery, while the gym ones are kind of boring in comparison. As I was stretching afterward I recalled some really good advice my favourite yoga instructor, Shehla, gave us over the weekend. She said to make sure the stretching stays inside the muscle belly and not on the attachments of the tendons and ligaments. Once you stretch out tendons and ligaments they don't spring back and you lose support and stability of the affected joint. So when you are stretching, try to keep the sensation in the middle of the muscle you are stretching, not at the nearest joint.
