Favorite pose

Before it began raining cats and dogs here today, The Cowboy and I grabbed our saddlebags water bottles, headed to the park, and did our "wogging" today.  We started at about 8:00 am.  Temp was 62, but the humidity was 88% (it had dropped from 92% earlier this morning). I'm wondering how much the humidity affects my breathing capacity...or maybe it was just our second day with the 90 seconds of running, and I've been a slug all year. Either way, I exclaimed a loud "Hallelujah!" when we finished our 5th and final period of running. The Cowboy gave me a pat on the back. I was pretty excited that I kept up with him each time we ran, though that's not my goal. My goal is to remain conscious during my run.

After each workout we step under one of the pavilions to do some stretching. It only takes about 15 minutes, but I'm so glad we do it. It can be very relaxing. We start with neck stretches, head rolls, shoulders, sides, and work our way down. As a helpful workout partner, I've been able to encourage The Cowboy toward greater flexibility ("Hold on to this pole, grab your ankle and pull your foot toward your butt.  Yes, you can touch your foot to your butt.  It's a quad stretch.  Like this.  You should be able to do this.  Try harder.  You are not.  What?  No, I don't want to hear where you want to put your foot.")

I've also been able to introduce him to some yoga poses.  We always save our favorite for last.  It looks like this...

What?  Do I have to get up now?
