OK, So much happened today apart from going to work, speaking of which I need to seriously start looking for a new job, because come September my contract is up and not subject to renewal. Enough about that mess.<\/p>\n

New shoes! I’m so doing the new shoes dance. Always stay with what works. For me it’s the New Balance 940v2, Made in the USA, and orange Superfeet insoles. I put my previous pair side by side for comparison as to what 625 miles does to a shoe. Now I use the 940v2 because of the support for pronators. I am very bad, I could also use the NB 1260v4, which they started assembling in the USA again, so I may go there, because I have used both shoes and I actually like the 1260 better, but currently I have been using the 940 and with my schedule I will stick with it for now, as it’s what my body is used to. Maybe at the end of the year I will switch up. Check out the wear on the old pair!

More pictures, it’s like Show and Tell today. So, remember how I said I was both American and Italian, well I got my Italian Passport today. The most interesting part is, my US Passport is 8 years old, you get to see how different all the miles and the whole almost dead this has made me. It’s incredible, well plus the awesome beard! I feel so official now, I can’t wait to use it!

Finally, today was the start of the Men’s 30 Day Yoga Challenge<\/a>, with Raghunath<\/a> as the teacher. It was awesome, I suggest everyone go check it out. I feel more relaxed and so much better after just one 10 minute class, and it’s 10 minutes per day, for 30 days. It was cool and exciting and I liked it even though it was tough as. Seriously, I am not very flexible, I’ve often forsaken stretching in lieu of just running more, and it has been to my detriment. I feel like this may be the way forward for me. It was very cool! In honor of Raghunath’s awesome class and how excited I am, I present to you his band Shelter and their song “Message of the Bhagavat” off of their 1995 album Mantra:
