workout weekend

this weekend i had a major workout weekend. I hit up yoga on sat. morning with bernie, it was packed, and with nearly 50% men. the only thing that annoyed me was the guy next to me who was obviously in yoga teacher training or something kept trying to help me, which is apprecitated, but the first time that's ever happened to me in yoga that someone other than the teacher offers to help. that is such a male thing to do also. When i worked at warner bros. studios, i'd work out in the gym there and typically i'd work out next to jennifer aniston, rob lowe, brooke shields etc etc basically anyone filming a show there. oh and clint eastwood. i have the best story about how i was on a treadmill and jen anniston got on the one next to me and started sprinting, and i was like "i can go as fast as her" so i sped up the treadmill and then of course, i fell and grabbed onto the bar and held on as the treadmill kept going... and was humilated and yeah, the women on the ellipticl next to the treadmill leaned over and hit the stop button. and i had quite a treadmill burn. FYI I can't keep up with jen anniston.

anyway, at that gym guys would always come up to me and give me advice on what i was doing wrong, what i should be doing, etc. it was very annoying. so this yoga guy was annoying, although very kind. i love this yoga class we go to on sat. mornings, the guy anthony at city yoga is so awesome, and just gives the best classes EVER!

then sat. night we went to a st. patty day party and this irish band was playing in the backyard of my friends house and we were all dancing up a storm. I was sober since i gave up sweets and alcohol for Lent but that didn't stop me from getting up on stage and singing "what would you do with a drunken sailor." then sunday my BF made me french toast and we went on a 28 mile bike ride and it was awesome!!! last night, a hot shower and a hot cup of cammomile tea was the best reward for a hard weekend of dancing, yoga-ing and biking.

FYI, biking is much easier when you have 2 pedals. my pedal came off my bike and i had to bike for 6 miles before we came to a bike shop that could put it back on! don't ask how i biked with one pedal, i have no idea, sheer determination i suppose.
