Let’s get this party started with jeff noel’s favorite 1-minute motivational You Tube video, “I Got Soul”:
Lean on Lane 8 if you need a daily dose of somethin’.

Are Unhealthy People Obnoxious?
May 30, 2011 by 2 Comments
This isn’t about looking healthy, this is about our eating, exercising, and sleeping habits. Photo from an Airport Chili’s.
Cheeseburger and fries or salmon, broccoli and rice?
Go to bed early or watch more TV?
Get up early to run, or sleep in?
Are unhealthy people obnoxious?
They seem so quietly defensive if you ask the average person.

Too busy to run? Or maybe too cold? Either way, no exercise. But gave a lecture to help make the world a better place. Took some photos too.
Are healthy people obnoxious?
They seem like showoffs if you ask the average person.

We Hate To Admit It, Don’t We?

Birmingham Conference Center art display, Beverly Hills, Michigan.
We hate to admit it but we know we feel better when we exercise.
We have all the wisdom we need, but we must figure it out ourselves.
And this will take a lifetime, because boredom and excuses are the Sirens’ song.

What Will You Regret The Most By Not Starting?

Fear nothing more than wasting the present moment. – Mark Sanborn
Many of us use cold weather as an excuse to not exercise.
Or, darkness, due to shorter winter daylight hours.
Great news, that ain’t gonna happen for three more months.
Go. Get started.

Nashville Marriott room key a few weeks ago…
Forget about New Year’s Resolutions. Lets talk about Summer.
How healthy would you like to be?
Be the change you wish to see in yourself. And fear nothing more than wasting another seasonal opportunity to dream big, get started, and never stop.

That’s The Story & I’m Sticking To It
May 24, 2011 by 2 Comments
Charlotte, North Carolina, summer 2006, a Fraternity brother and his Family sure don’t take health for granted. Leukemia stinks.
You’ve reached big goals in your life. Congratulations. Yet mountains remain.
Wouldn’t it be cool (even inspiring) if some of you wanted to share a story or two. Lane 8 is about finding the motivation to never give up on our health.
To always find a way to stay (relatively) healthy. We’ll benefit if we stick together.
Common sense, but not always common.

In The Blink Of An Eye, jeff noel Misses Being An All American
May 23, 2011 by 4 Comments
Looking carefully, you’ll see the heat results at the top and overall results in middle.
The bad news, jeff noel finished 5th in that heat. The good news, surprisingly, after it was all said and done, finished # 10 overall, just missing the finals. Tenth in the Nation, for M45-49. And healthy!
Lowered my season best from 57.19 to 56.35. Anything 56.0 and under is an age-graded equivalent All-American standard.
To blink your eyes closed and open, is about .35 seconds. That half-step backwards stole the AA honor.

BANG!
May 22, 2011 by Leave a Comment
It was 8pm, but you get the picture, the stands are filled with experienced Masters athletes, coaches.
BANG! The starter’s pistol fires. Everyone is off to a great start, except Lane 1 (me).
So nervous standing there watching all the others get set in their starting blocks, that my first step was not an explosive jump forward, but a nervous half back-step, as if startled and afraid by what just happened.
Too bad so sad. Go, get moving.
