Walk in Golden Gate Park

My Life· Travel

FacebookTweetPin
11 Jun

Hello from San Francisco! I skipped southern CA and found myself going from FL to NorCal last night.

I decided to start the day with a walk in Golden Gate Park. No run today since I did 10 yesterday and am due for a rest day.

Every time I come to San Francisco I head straight to the Golden Gate Bridge. But since I wasn’t running I decided to explore a new area this morning! Luckily, we’re staying super close to GG Park!

I walked about 3.5 miles with my brain movies. It was nice Smile

Then, I came back to the fun StitchFix house and made breakfast.

Coffee. I still need some Blue Bottle though!!

And in a perfect start to the trip – we had a yoga in the park session! Between all my running and traveling my hips needed this so bad. They don’t lie.

A dog crashed our party!

My peep Julie from PB Fingers is here. Love her blue tank.

The rest of the trip is kind of a mystery so we’ll see what happens next!

Question: When was the last time you did yoga?

      Last time I did an actual yoga class was hot yoga about 2 years ago. Runner’s World Magazine always has a page of 3-6 yoga moves and stretches, and I tear out that page every month and do the moves. Plus I’ve incorporated a few other moves into my normal stretching routine. But you’re right, the hips don’t lie and need those types of workouts and stretches!

      My friend works at Stich Fix and I see her in one of the pictures. Nice blog. I just started running and I love it.

      I used to live in San Francisco and MISS IT SO MUCH! Beautiful city, don’t you think? I used to go to Bikram Yoga Nob Hill on Polk Street. It was actually my first attempt at yoga and have been in love ever since! I’ve recently moved to Melbourne, Australia and found a delightful studio here to practice at, been going 2-3 times per week. It really helps strengthen and stretch what running does to the body!

      Just yesterday evening after work! I went for a Relaxed Yoga class and it was good to unwind with something easy after work.

      I can’t remember the last time I did yoga. I think about doing yoga a lot, but then I don’t actually do it…

      I LOVE yoga in the park! In fact, I just did some yoga in the park in SF just a couple weekends ago. I loved the view of the city while in dogward dog! 🙂 Hope you having fun exploring!

      Gah! While in SF — you need to go to Philz Coffee and get a Mint Mojito Iced Coffee, STAT!

      Gah! I’m ashamed to admit it was about 4 years ago. I don’t have the peace of mind or patience to do yoga. Maybe if I did it I would gain peace of mind and patience?

      Looks like an amazing time! I haven’t done yoga in a loooong time. I did do hot yoga last year and that was an experience…

      This looks like so much fun!!! Yoga at the park sounds like the best start to your day – and I’m jealous of those San Fran views! Gorgeous!

      Is walking considered a rest day? I was just having this conversation with my coworker and we couldn’t decide. When I walk, I walk 9-10 miles and I’m power walking i.e. counting runners as I pass them.

      San Francisco is one of my favorite cities to run in, but the hills always kill me. I wish I could do my long runs there every week (I’m from San Jose).

      I need to incorporate yoga, but never can seem to find the time. Or maybe I just don’t want to do it bad enough? I’m so not flexible and I know with all the running I’m even more tight than I should be.

      Yoga in the park looks so fun! It’s been a while since I’ve done yoga. I might look for some outdoor yoga this weekend.

      I’ve always wanted to do yoga in the park. I would love to get the class I teach outside, but it would be tough to hear me then. Looks like a fun way to stretch out!

      SF was on our before we move from CA visit list. I can only stand traffic and big cities for a little while.

      The architecture was amazing. Probably my favorite part.

      A mystery trip sounds like fun.
