Today I decided that I would partake in pilates in the park. I ran a round about 4miles to get there, and turned up a little bit muddy and dishevelled. Such X training as pilates and yoga are recommended for runners – keeps us subtle and works those all important core muscles. A strong core mean less injury and a more streamline running technique. I enjoy pilates but guaranteed every time I go I have no idea whether I am doing what I should be doing. I breath in when I should be breathing out, and then don’t breath at all when I am supposed to be stacking each vertebrae on top of each other; and how the hell do you zip up your abdominal muscles from your pelvic floor?! Anyway, I felt very relaxed afterwards, and breezed home.
