Hi there. Happy Saturday!
Yesterday, the first Friday of November and OMG it was 75 degrees! Just beautiful!
I looked up and was rewarded with this view
I went to yoga on Monday and while not much new to report as far as progress goes I am definitely getting stronger with Crow Pose and that’s really exciting. I can’t believe it’s been 6 months since I started practicing yoga.
On Tuesday I finally had chance to run a few miles in those New Balance Fresh Foam sneakers and I loved them!

It was a quick 30 minutes so I’ll need to run in them a bit more to confirm but my toes felt comfortable and that’s really the most important thing for me right now.
And then on Wednesday I got a haircut and blowout.
Straight hair Sally (for a few hours anyway)
But the straight hair didn’t last long. I went on a 5 mile hike that evening and the air was fairly damp.

But for a few hours my hair looked amazing! 🙂 I wore my new Altra Lone Peak hiking shoes that Mr. SOTSS got me for my birthday and they were awesome!

Oh, and my sister-in-law got me some Sketchers boots for my birthday that are really comfortable too.
happy feet
So my fall footwear arsenal is starting to shape up 😉
Thursday I took a rest day and yesterday I planned to go for a run but I somehow twisted my knee in my sleep! I woke up yesterday and could barely walk. I think I know what I did. I tend to sleep on my side with the knee of my top leg sort of up and over the edge of the bed. I think I must have overextended it. The inside of the knee going down the leg hurts. I took some Ibuprofen yesterday and have been icing it and it feels a bit better today but I guess I’ll have to wait another couple of days before resuming running or yoga. I’ve slept in weird positions and woken up with stiff neck or sore arm before but never did anything to my knee before. Sigh! I’m truly injury prone. 2017 has been quite the year for sidelines.
all of her injuries are crimping my dog-walking lifestyle
I was happy to see this finisher photo of me from the Trenton 5k last weekend. I’m smiling! 🙂
Gonna take a cue from the universe and just relax this morning. I’m hoping Mr. SOTSS and I can take the dogs for a walk in the park later. If the knee doesn’t cooperate I’ll be bummed.
Have a great weekend! Good luck to all those running the NYC Marathon tomorrow.
What does your Saturday look like?
Ever injure yourself in your sleep?
