New York: Washington Square Park
Inspiration: I find this inspiring. I can run for miles without a problem. It's almost as if my body is programmed to run. But don't ask me to stretch. Yoga? Ha. Pilates? Yeah. No. But when I saw this, I kind of wished I could twist my body around like a pretzel without ripping muscles and tendons into bits. I can touch my toes though.

Now that's a sight.
Look at her level of concentration.
Great pictures. Great pose.
If you can touch your toes, then you can bend like her...soon...with practice...much much more practice.
Great post.

yoga is the best, you should try ;) i'm always amazed at what i can achieve in a good yoga class. you think, no i can't do this, and the next minute the teacher talks you into it, et voila !

Touching your toes as a runner is an achievement as your hamstrings shorten so well done. I love yoga. Pilates hurts my back!!!! They say a flexible spin keeps you young. She must be two then hey ;-). Great shots. Xxxx

Look at the blisters on her feet. They tell the story behind the performance, like how much work and how many hours go into that sort of profession. Amazing shots!

The blisters on her feet are telling, aren't they.
