Never in a million years could you have convinced him he was capable of running ten miles on any given day.

We are capable of things beyond our comprehension.

What is the catalyst powerful enough for us to change our thinking, forever?

Our weight is a daily agenda item

Our weight is a daily agenda item. There are very few of us who don’t have to concern ourselves with weight gain. Like showering, brushing our teeth, and other personal hygiene items, a daily focus is key.

Yes it’s monotonous, boring, tiring, and continuously frustrating.

Now imagine if we didn’t focus on it every damn day.

A classic pick your battle scenario.

What if we don’t have enough wherewithal?

Everyone should have an impossible wellness dream.

 

Without a powerful, clear, concise, and compelling personal wellness vision, there’s no way to fight off the relentless demands on our time and energy. There’s not enough ammunition to slay the “quitting” dragon.

Not enough wherewithal to become an example, rather than a warning.

The long way is the short cut

First of three 4+ mile walks around Disneyland on this day.

 

The long way is the short cut. Ran a very slow five-miler this morning before sunrise. First time running in new shoes. Walked about 40 miles at Disneyland, plus 60 miles logged walking in Orlando prior.

Because of foot challenges, have been wearing trail running shoes for 12 years. The new shoes are a dramatic departure. This could cause new foot injuries if the adjustment is not gradual enough.

One hundred miles was a great break in effort. No issues on today’s run.

BFF with denialism?

Most if not all of us have a long history of denialism. It’s a comfortable coat we wear, even when we aren’t cold.

We eat because of all the stress in our life and food provides comfort.

And this comfort causes weight gain discomfort which starts the cycle all over again

Gained a few pounds the past five days while at Disneyland.
