lazy legs

I actually survived the pilates class without making a fool of myself, though I have to say I am NOT good at pilates. I think you have to HAVE abdominal muscles in order to tighten them. Although, whatever muscles I do have, I'm certainly more aware of them today. That class takes a lot of coordination, and although I like to think of myself as a reasonably coordinated person, it is revealed to me in moments like pilates class that I am in fact not. Nothing like contorting your body into strange, sweaty shapes in front of a mirror while wearing tight clothing to make you feel really really good about yourself.

I absolutely must go to bed earlier. I was having a hard time staying awake after my run this morning, which to me means that the 3-times-interrupted 6 hours of sleep I got just didn't cut it! Anyway, the run itself was great. It was supposed to be an easy run, so I took it slow and focused on keeping my heart rate down by breathing evenly and relaxing. It went by much faster than some of my past runs. But boy are my legs feeling it today, and I'm TIRED. That should help me to get to bed on time!
