    I do Hatha yoga. I really should lift as well but haven't got around to starting a programme.

    Spinning and swimming here - I find I can't run day after day as it's too much for my joints.

    Usually when I'm training as a runner, it's just running 7 days a week with maybe 1-2 days a week in the gym for some lifting. Occasionally I'll take a monday off completely or cross train with a very easy ride on the bike.

    Fitness Blender. So lots of resistance and cardio work. I haven't run for a few weeks now as I'm really enjoying my other work outs so much at the moment!

    I'm looking at starting spinning shortly, also use the weights at the gym on non-running days.

    I'm here also. Not running again until it stays light after work, until 5:30 P.M. Don't like running in the dark. Can't see, can't be seen.

    Barre classes 5 or 6 days a week- really helping me build a stronger core and glutes, also forces me to stretch (I get really lazy about stretching after runs!)
