Bikram 60 Day Challenge - 57 - Runner's High

When I was in Arizona a week or so ago I was chatting with a gal in the Bikram Locker Room . . . she also a runner. I told her since I started doing Bikram I was able to get the same "fix" as a nice long run. She compared Bikram to getting a runner's high . . . I'm like yeah that is exactly right . . . it is like my brain is making a proper connection.

My morning started out with a nice 5 mile run with one group of runners and when I got home a friend called and wanted to know if I wanted to run so obviously I went out for another 5 miles, who could turn down a run?

Before I headed off to Bikram . . . I headed off to look at some real estate, real estate market is an interesting place right now.

Anyway finally arrived at Bikram for the 4:30 class . . . I normally crave getting to the Bikram class, but not today . . . it was kind of like an AHA moment I had gotten my "fix" for the day . . . I went through the class not needing the "fix" . . . To be honest I was getting a little apprehensive, scared, of coming to the end of my 60 Day Challenge, yes I was definatelely going to continue with my Bikram classes, but due to time commitment with a bit of a drive I needed to cut back to 4-5 times a week and what would happen to me on the days I didn't go ? ? ? I can simple ramp up my running a bit and I should be covered . . . I think they call that balance.
