Seeing the world differently!

I had another short fast run last night as I cruised the streets with my head tourch and rucksack getting funny looks from the dog walkers. Why is it that it's always the wee ones that have a go at your ankles? Bloody owners should have them on a short leash not an expandable one! But this morning I had a very differnt experience. My yoga teacher was trying to get me to do a head stand. Scary stuff. The fear factor really got to me and I couldn't get into the headstand without collapsing. Part of the problem was being upside down - the world looked completely different and I was confused. I couldn't tell where my feet or my bum was as I was so confused. But how could I fear doing something so realatively simple? Good practice for entering the new teritory later on this month of the Sahara Desert. Long miles for Saturday & Sunday as I build the mileage back up. Once I get back from my Sahara training at the end of Feb I'll probably have 10 more days of hard training before it tapers off as my body gets time to repair and rest. Happy weekend folks.
