Lane 8 – The Results.  Folks want to know, “How’d ya do at the WMA Masters World Championships in Lahti, Finland”?

I did really, really well.  Superfantastic actually.  Beyond what I thought was possible this year.

However, I must start with the top line results:

BMI, Triglycerides, Cholesterol, and Blood Pressure – the big four.

All have been tracking at very good to excellent levels.

Do you know your big four?

I never used to, but the health experts say these are the top, overall health metrics we should discuss with our personal physicians.

Not long ago, I decided to get a handle on what these mean and why they are important.

How’s your handle on your big four?

PS.  Guido Muller, in the photo, set the M70 400 meters World Record, just minutes before the photo was taken.  His achievement has been compared to the equivalent of Roger Bannister breaking the 4-minute mile barrier back in 1954.

Masters Track & Field

Masters Track & Field.

I thank God that there are people who organize Track & Field meets and running events.

Why?

Because it gives adults 30 to 100 years old several reasons to be active:

  1. It’s organized
  2. You can pick your level of competitiveness, or not
  3. It’s local and global
  4. There’s passion for health, wellness & well-being
  5. It’s done in age groups to make it “fair”
  6. It provides a reason, or purpose, to get and stay active
  7. It attracts diverse group of like-minded people
  8. It provides wide variety of options: sprints, distance and field
  9. Running or walking is what the human body was made to do
  10. It showcases that anything is possible, for anyone – shares hope

This isn’t for everyone.  Find your unique way to get and stay active. Masters Track & Field is just one option.

World Ranking?

World Ranking?

Thanks to all who have supported and prayed for great results at Lane 8.

Have been trying to figure out the best way to share the Masters World Championships results.

In general, society, conditioned by the media, has a warped view of success.

When was the most recent time you thought about the last place finisher in an Olympic finals?

Okay, so they were last.  And yet, they were the eighth best in the world.

Ya with me?  Number 8.  In the world.

Not many pause long enough in this busy world to contemplate the greatness of last place.  Do you?

Stay tuned.  And thanks again for your faithful following.  Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂

Lane 8 Vision-jeff noel story

Lane 8 Vision – jeff noel’s personal story.

The video says it all.  It’s longer than normal, on purpose.

More to come. Do you have a vision? Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂

Lane 8 Vision

Lane 8 Vision.  What’s the vision for Lane 8?  I’ve shared it over and over with people, one at a time.

It hit me.  Record a Lane 8 You Tube video and post it as a PAGE for first time visitors to Lane 8.

This is the first of several jeff noel midlife You Tube videos, sharing the vision for Lane 8.

Now, hopefully, you have a clearer picture.  But this is only the beginning.  Stay tuned.

As soon as I can, I’ll post the followup to this one.
