Why milestones help us

Why do milestones help us?

Why be intentional enough to pick a special day versus any day?

Because what we are embarking on is something that will be with us for the rest on our lives.

Right?

The other thing begun in April was running.

But that goes back to 2000.

April 15, tax day, to be exact.

And in 2000 there was not as powerful a connection to storytelling as there was in 2009.

A typical run in the greatest city in the world

Times Square
First photo taken yesterday morning – Times Square

 

Made running a priority yesterday.

And you?

Hey, the fact that it started in Times Square, and included Good Morning America, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Apple Store 5th Avenue, and Central Park was simply a bonus.

Play the hand we are dealt.

Live like you mean it.

Ten days into the new year. Lots of running at Walt Disney World.

It’s awesome that so many people find this four-day event motivating and stimulating.

  • day 1:  3.1
  • day 2:  6.2
  • day 3:  13.1
  • day 4:  26.2

Nearly 50 miles some will run.

Ran five this morning with second mile in 6:07.

Rusty, but will take it.

Find a million ways to stay motivated.

And figure out how to scale it for a lifetime.

Seriously.
