Three Aussie Night

Kinda like a driveway. You drive past the entrance in a u-turn fashion in order to enter the Varsity Apartments complex.

Three (more) Aussie nights?

Yep.

Seemed like it would take forever to get this close to returning home.

And now it feels like a lit fuse and this wonderful Australia trip (number two) will be over in the blink of an eye. Or, in the seconds it takes a fuse to ignite it’s intended outcome.

Early morning wins

USATF Olympic trials schedule
Bunch of great finals today.
Three adults in the mountains
The mountain on the right is the same mountain you see from Lookout Cafe.

Walked a few miles and did my ‘no-gym’ gym workout before we left for breakfast.

Getting this early personal win in is an exception feeling.

Everything after that is a bonus.

Watched Day 4 of the USATF Olympic Trails while we relaxed on our Pacific-Ocean-facing apartment.

Physical test?

People are moving on this beachfront path
People are moving on this beachfront path every day, all day.
Ocean sunrise
From the moment i peer out the 5am window, people are active. It is busy continuously. Never slowing down. Perhaps it slows after midnight. Guessing between 1-5am it’s deserted.

Your daily test is comparing how you feel against how you hope to feel.

dad

Move.

Rest.

Fuel.

Over-focus.

Have fun.

.think .differently

Bonus: Lean into discomfort.

Why?

So that you pass the test, every day.

Physical workarounds

Australian retail signs
Walked six miles before lunch. Love the Australian continent image inside the crab.

Just start walking. Getting started is the critical act.

dad

There are a million reasons to not move.

There are a million for moving.

Stoke the benefits not the excuses.
