Yesterday was the first day of High School second semester, which included our son’s first real, personal fitness class. He has historically been non-athletic. The teacher had everyone do two laps (half mile). i had no idea this was coming.
Coincidently, the day before, our father/son run included eight mailboxes, or 800 meters. We started running eight weeks ago.
i remember telling him after we finished the half-mile jog that we ran the equivalent of two laps around a track. Have to believe that he had a confidence with him that would have not existed had we not started running 100 meters a day for a week, and then adding 100 meters more each week.
The slow and steady, almost ridiculously easy distance, and the gradual increase added up, and will continue to add up.
A metaphor for our own lives, no?

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Athletes can be obnoxious in high school. This was a brief part of yesterday’s conversation with a 15-year old at his first high school football game.
Why?
Not sure.
Probably has something to do with how you are perceived by others when you feel strong and confident.

Man, this is a strong feeling.
Ever have moments in life where it just seems to be coming together nicely?
I mean really coming together?
Should we worry?
What if it crashes, or we get over-confident or worse, become arrogant?
After 14 years of running, these are some of the most exciting because I’m healthy and my core has never ever been stronger, not at any age, even youth.
If I can do it, you can do it.
