Only One Man In History

Significant human achievements, especially “firsts”, are rare. And they are rare because no human has ever done such a thing before. If we are lucky, we may see a few in our lifetimes.

What comes to mind from your own experience?

Tyson Gay, second fastest human ever, in the history of the world, is the ONLY human to run:

sub 10 in 100 meters
sub 20 in 200 meters
sub 45 in 400 meters

A few weeks ago, Tyson ran a 400 meters PR 44.89, to set the milestone above.

If you enjoy Track & Field or have a curiosity about the current hype between Tyson Gay, Usain Bolt and Asafa Powell – the three fastest humans of all time are running in the same lifetime, in the same meets – then you will probably enjoy this article from IAAF.org

Here’s The New Medicine

It’s called exercise.

Boston Marathon 2010

Will Your Dreams & Motivation Go Down The Drain?

Monday, Ryan Hall set an all-time American record, 2:08.41, for the fastest Boston Marathon finish by an American. Ever!

Ryan Hall was fourth overall, and the winner set a new Boston Marathon course record. Fastest Boston Marathon in it’s 124 year history.

Ryan ran only six one-hundredths of second faster than the previous American record.

Not six minutes faster, not six seconds faster, not six-tenths of a second faster.

Six one-hundredths faster.

We can’t even blink that fast. That was the cumulative time over 26.2 miles, 0:00.06 faster.

Mind boggling!

What does this mean to you? Most likely, nothing.

Or it may just be the daily motivation you were looking for. We start anew every day. We can never tire of the basics. Ever.

It's The Living That's Important — It’s The Living That’s Important

Have friends who just won’t let go, or just won’t stop talking about a certain thing?

You know, the ones that go on and on and on about the thing.

Sometimes you want to look them straight in the eyes and say, “Enough already!”

And sometimes you simply want to grab them.

Grab them, look them straight in the eyes, and say, “Thank you. Thank you for not giving up on me!”

This post may not be intended for you. But if it is, you’re welcome.
