Main goal? Work on my flexibility. I won't say EPIC fail but I'd say pretty close to it. I made it to yoga ONCE this month. ONCE. G has been 6 times in the last 10 days. WTH? Although, I have been making an effort to foam roll and stretch a bit more, even when I haven't done a work out. I really need to keep on this as my PT seems to think that my knee issues are a result of my insanely tight calves and ankles. Yes, everything is connected. So moving forward this will be something that I HAVE to do on a regular basis.
I also said that I was going to get back to heavier lifting and strength training 3x a week. Check - sort of. I'm back in the gym and the squat rack and I have become friends again but instead of lifting 3x a week, I'm lifting twice a week and then I've added a TRX class as my third day of strength training. Good LORD is that ever hard. It works all the little muscles that the big lifts don't always get to. I thought I was in pretty good shape until after my first class. I was sore for 3 days. 3 freaking days. But I loved every minute of it. I'm going to make of point of doing it as much as I can in December. Once training for Boston starts, I'll have to forgo it but for now, it's staying.
Goal for December? Maintenance baby. That's it. I've got a good thing going right now, my body is in a happy place and I'd like to keep it there for as long as possible.
How did your November go?

HAHA the yoga part made me die. I bought a groupon a few weeks ago for three months of yoga and haven't activated it yet... That's my goal for this month. It'll force me to stretch and I think it'll help big time with keeping my body in check.
November went okay. I think my goal was just to become injury-free and run Hamilton without dying. Mission accomplished!
It was a good November for the most part. Good luck with Yoga. I always enjoy the hot yoga I go to with my friend Bridgett, but I can never pull the trigger on buying a membership.
I do yoga at home. I once signed up for 10 sessions with my sister. After the 3rd class we just started going out for drinks instead. LOL TRX is super hard. I hate it. My friend Emma loves it so much she has the TRX getup at home! Good luck in December!
