Busy day: last day at the current clinic location, so it was bustling with moving guys as I was treating patients. Worked 'til 1130, then went to yoga at 12. Truthfully, I wanted to see Chelsea. Uh-oh. But I did.

Good class. Fuck, there was a hip sequence that was crazy-tough where I simply had to stop and rest! She looked great...not just "hot", but in a holistic way. Happy and at peace. I don't remember her that way, much at all, a year ago.

After that, I hustled home to get in a run. It's been 5 days without any allergy meds. And with 3 consecutive dry(ish) days, shit must've piled up. ROUGH run. SLOW, sluggish, "at altitude" feeling. The yoga fatigue didn't help, but that didn't explain the labored breathing. I scarcely get under 8:00/mi pace today.

Taped the trunk. MAN did it feel awkward, so either the taping was extreme, or my trunk symmetry has been way off all week. I suspect the latter, because I had little L hamstring discomfort (despite yoga stress) on the run. Listened to the Tropical John/Yassine podcast, which was good (Yassine's two favorite beers? "What you got" and "More"!).

No "NIGZ" to speak of, which is good. QUADZ felt fine, feet OK, ankle fine...back is fine. A year ago is when I tweaked the shit out of my back (which led to months of sketchy back pain). Thank God I've got that nailed down. Things are good.

After that? Met with Mike, my lone coaching client. He'll be good to work with. THEN, allergy appointment! Got the specific plants honed in, so now I'm ready for injections...

Excited for LIL SADEZ to arrive!

Still not much comm for Teresa. Some curt texts today, but that's it. Not sure how much I want to push that...
