Active rest

This morning started with an early morning yoga session. It's the same every time. Stiff as a board at the start and by the end feeling more flexible and refreshed. I cannot imagine what my legs and lower back would be like if I didn't practise my yoga. It may not be perfect but it works. What followed was a hectic day and I didn't get home till late so I binned the proposed run as it was dark. My throat has also been sore and with the temperature at 1 degree I decided to take the rest. That doesn't sit well with me but I am so close I can't take any chances. I'll run tomorrow morning and hope this will keep me ticking over till I do some more miles at the weekend. Tapering is frustrating and niggles and feeling crap come with it. The negative thoughts also creep in so I've some work to do getting prepared.
