This weekend sponsored by the number 5...

I had quite a weekend! On Saturday morning I ran in a 5K race. I started running again a couple of months ago, and this was my first race in Guam. I did not place in the finish, but I did run the full race and I had a decent time for me. I will have some pictures of the race to post soon.

After the race, I headed down to Inarajan, near the south tip of the island, for day one of a two day yoga workshop. So, after running a 5K I did 5 hours of yoga on Saturday. Whew! I was quite tired at the end of the day, and slept well. Needless to say, I was a little sore this morning when I got out of bed, but I had 5 more hours of yoga to attend.

The yoga workshop was wonderful. Here is the view I looked at for 10 hours over the course of two days (that is, when I was not upside down and backwards).

and here is the spot where I enjoyed my lunch today...


I am very happy I did the workshop, although my body is feeling sore and tired. The teacher was a woman named Ki, who is based out Seattle, but travels quite a bit internationally to teach workshops. If she ever comes to your neighborhoods, I highly recommend her workshop.
Finally, two pictures in what I would like to call my "Clouds of Guam Obsession" series.
Aren't they amazing?

I have a big week coming up. On Tuesday I have a seminar to facilitate and on Thursday I am flying to Japan to spend time with Tom. I will be there from Thursday until next Tuesday so it will be a nice visit.
