I decided to bring in the new year with only a sip of champagne at midnight and a rest day today. I felt fabulous (and big) in my sparkly black dress last night and enjoyed a walk in the sunshine with friends on Crissy Field this afternoon. Nothing else to report!

The start of fall opera season has not been conducive to working out and having extra energy. Plus, when I have had the time to do something, I haven’t wanted to spend my free time writing about it! I’ve made a commitment to practice yoga every other day, so on the mornings when I roll [...]

On Monday, by the time I boarded my second flight, I was beginning to feel ill again. My sinuses hurt and my body was achey. On Tuesday morning I took a long walk near our hotel to stretch my legs and clear my lungs, but I continued to feel worse. I was using a saline [...]

I thought I would be more sore today, based on how I was feeling last night but I decided to just ride around the city for my random appointments and call it a day in the exercise department. I still managed to put 10 miles on my bike (and save 10 on my car in [...]

I woke up this morning and took stock of how my body felt then decided to stay in bed longer. My arms were exhausted and I knew a swim wouldn’t help. There was no chance my legs wanted to run three days in a row. And I was about to spend four hours in the [...]

Today was a busy day and my knee was ready for a rest. My sisters both arrived and we began our March round of trio rehearsals. It was pouring in the morning so I began my day with a few rounds of sun salutations, hoping to inspire some sunshine. It didn’t work but I felt [...]

Today was another half day of recording, followed by a 5 hour flight. At the end if it all, I found myself luxuriating in the Hawaiian warmth Mom referred to as “a little cold”. Her idea of cold has drastically changed since she left Colorado! I had an isle seat on the flight and I [...]

It is 8 am and I’m somewhere between Santa Fe and Denver. Today will be a rest day for me because I am feeling exhausted and my back is aching. One of the most important aspects of training is listening when my body tells me to stop! Since there will be no workout logged today, [...]
