And in the evening, 60 minute yoga class, to try it again.
Re-learning what I'd forgotten: Nothing makes me feel more ineffectual and anxious than a yoga class at the gym. I was, once again, the heaviest woman there. This is not at all like the classes that I took at CNY Yoga Center in Upstate NY, which is what helped get me through the aftermath of the flood. I already know that I don't like yoga classes held at gyms as much as yoga classes at yoga centers, but somehow, I forgot.

krampus - I've never used Yaktrax, but I've heard great things about them. I think Jessica was talking about them a couple of years ago, too.

Saef - thanks for the welcome! I'm not doing anything particularly inspired on the workout front right now. I remember those workouts of a few years ago, oh how the mighty have fallen. The one I did last night was light compared to those and I thought it was going to kill me. :)
