Yoga Challenge

So I like yoga. I've been practicing on and off since high school, but I've never been a yoga devotee. Well that is going to change my friends. I've decided to do yoga and run every day (or at least 6 days a week) until graduation, which is June 12. I started yesterday, with a 3 mile jog and a 30 minute Vinyasa flow yoga workout, and I very much enjoyed it.

While I do have several yoga workout DVDs and there are many available on Netflix instant, I also want to try a class, so tomorrow I'm going to check out Barefoot Yoga here in Davis, maybe get a month of unlimited classes, so I have even more motivation to practice. I do want to become really good at yoga, but I know it takes time.

Also, running is kind of awesome and even though I've only been doing it regularly for the last few weeks, I can already see a difference in my stamina, so yay! I want to run a half marathon on of these days and now I'm starting to think maybe that will be possible some day.

So friends, runners, yoga experts, do ya'll have any advice for me?
