Two miles is better than nothing
Two miles is better than nothing. It surely is. So yesterday at 5:30am, i took what i could get.
What we lack in distance, we make up by feeding our resolve to never quit.
Note: Speakers are generally the first to arrive and the last to leave. Long days (and early morning start times) are not conducive to exercise.

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.

It’s Completely Up To You
What you do today is completely up to you. Always has been. Always will be.
Yes, everyone has obligations that must be attended to. Yes, there are things that come up unexpectedly – and sometimes these events are tragic.
Yes, it’s difficult. Yes, it’s overwhelming. Yes, it’s confusing, frustrating, painful and on and on.
Thank you for listening. You may have thought this was written for you. Well, sort of. Mostly though, I write to myself. So, please don’t take offense to the tone.
If we can’t talk honestly and openly with ourselves, we probably can’t with anyone else either. And even more than Halloween, that scares the heck out of me.
Still Sitting On Your Butt?
Are you planning to exercise today?
If you are, great.
If you’re not, why the heck not?
Just do it.
Did You Exercise Yesterday?
Did you? Great if you did. If you had a planned rest day, also great.
But if you didn’t do either in a purposeful way, you get another chance today.
Here are a couple tips, the most critical things, I’ve found to keep a positive momentum:
- Have a goal, or purpose, bigger than yourself
- Find the time of day that works best
- Add it to your calendar (no afterthoughts)
- Find an easy way to keep track of your progress
- Forgive yourself if you miss a day, but don’t make it a habit
- Have fun, stay healthy (injuries demotivate)
- Carpe diem
