Running Log and more

I have collected a few Spreadsheets that keep track of my jogs, how far my shoes have run, my weight, my blood pressure, my target heart rates, basically it does a bit of everything. I can't claim credit for any of it except to tweak a few things and to put it all together in one file. I have also included the original Spreadsheet and instructions

My Left Foot and Svaroopa® Yoga

I have had a bit of trouble with the circulation in my left leg for a while now. I have a Varicose vein and the circulation is quite poor. I especially have problems when I stand for long periods as my foot swells up so much that my toes don't touch the ground. It can take days for it to go down.

I thought I would buy a set of Skins socks to keep the swelling down while I was on Surf Life saving duty. I decided to ask my friend Angela for some advice before I bought them as she is a Nurse and knows about such things. She said to go ahead and try them but she would like to show me four simple poses that might also help. She is also a Svaroopa Yoga teacher so she knows what she is talking about so I jumped at the chance.
