Six and a half weeks in to running and training in my Vibram 5 Fingers! And day 39 of P90X! I finally laundered my 5 Fingers in the machine this week, I must admit they were a bit overdue. Gross! I've been running, doing yoga, weight lifting, doing plyometric (jump training), and more in these shoes or barefoot and I'm still loving it! Loving it more and more actually. I feel l am becoming the runner I had hoped to be. Remarkable. And I can't stop talking peoples poor ears off about how they should just try Vibram's on! My new running inspiration is my 11 year old niece, Mia. She runs and her long strong lean legs turn effortlessly under her body. So fast, smooth and easy. Gorgeous to watch her happy formation speeding along. 

Short review of P90X: I'm almost half way through, I can't believe it! I wish I would have had a proper pull up bar from the start. I also wish I would have pushed myself a bit harder in the first three weeks. Week four is kind of a rest week and I was still ready for more. "Get your mind right!" Tony Horton says this in the DVD series a lot. Also, "write it down!" Which I did not do and will do next time for sure! I didn't take photos as they suggest to see your progress, yet another thing I would go back and do. "Do your best and forget the rest!" and "Get a number in your head, set a goal!" More good advice from Horton. This is a DVD set I will come back to again and again. Mixed with yoga, running, and Tracy Anderson DVDs to switch it up and surprise these muscles of mine!

Wishing you health and strength inside and out. xoxoxo
