(3) Thu Jan 06 19:17:25 MST Some flexibility in my schedule: That is right. I am taking a class that is quite like Yoga or Pilates. We will write a little poetry, stretch in the gymnasium (where the gymnist work out with all of their pools of foam blocks and parrallel bars), and we even have a 10 min. "relaxation time" where we lie on the floor in the position of the vitruvian man and either nap or meditate with deep breathing techniques.
I am glad to be doing this class because I hope to be able to run in the St. George Marathon this October and I need to be much more flexible if I am going to be an efficient runner. I am also taking a jogging class with my old cross country coach Patrick Shane. I ran with him as a scruffy walk on to the cross country team in my freshman year. I remember when I was able to run for 10-15 miles at a time and I would get that euphoric feeling that all is well. Hopefully I will be able to do that again.
I am also taking Neuroanatomy. That will be a tremendosly challenging class, but I am excited because it will condition me to be able to understand the structures of the brain. The class is also very clinical with a heavy emphasis in MRI's and CAT scans of the brain. We will have to identify blood clogging, tumors, hemmorhages, etc using imaging tools. This is a great preparation for my carrer as a Radiological doctor, (if I do pursue that as a carrer that is).
