This is Day 5 of the fall 10×10 Challenge. Today feels a little like cheating because I spent most of the day in my yoga clothes. I recently found out that it's the best way for me to actually go to the gym. I got up, put

Welcome to Day 3 of the fall 10×10 Challenge. Today is a tough day, a migraine hit me unexpectedly yesterday and I spent most of the afternoon in bed. I got better in the evening but spent the worst night ever, getting woken up by the pain. But there&
