Exercise is optional like dying is optional

Biking to Disney World
Biked to Magic Kingdom yesterday to shoot a short “Speaker” video.

Yesterday was not a gym day, but i still wanted to bike.

Plus, i needed to do something at Disney’s Magic Kingdom.

Multitasked and did them simultaneously.

Exercise is optional like dying is optional.

Since when?

May i still possess an adventurer’s spirit

Disney Employee culture speakers
Stumbled upon this 1982 gem.

 

Prepping for a keynote speech next week and searching 1982 photos from my first days at Walt Disney World and stumbled upon this one from a cross-country bicycle trek.

Departed Philadelphia for places South and West.

i knew the $75 cash i had wouldn’t last and was excited for the adventure in how i’d learn to manage.

Headed South because it was early October and warmer weather seemed smart.

West because my best friend was living in Washington State.

Cash because i owned no credit card, nor did i have a bank account with money in it.

So easy to get to on a bicycle.

Home, sweet Disney home.

Easy 10-mile bike ride to cap off the evening.

Thursdays are “off” days from the gym.

One way to High School.

 

Took three tries to get 20 miles.

  1. Seven miles round trip to High School at 7:00am
  2. Six miles round trip to Pool Supply Store at 12:00pm
  3. Seven miles round trip to High School at 3:00pm

All of these trips traditionally are done with a car.

Who doesn’t want to become more active?

We are leaving in 30 minutes to ride to High School. i’ll return home and then walk three miles roundtrip to the gym.

157.5/7.5

Let the Magic begin

Biking at Disney
Yesterday, the California dude (my cousin) never saw a quick bike trip to Main Street USA coming. And breakfast on Main Street to top off the surprise.

Starbucks and breakfast is up on the right.

 

Mickey Mouse Castle Forecourt
We finished our breakfast while watching the daily Let The Magic Begin welcoming show played.

 

We biked nine miles roundtrip and walked a mile or two inside Magic Kingdom.

My cousin arrived at 6:45am (from Jacksonville) to be able to briefly see Cheryl and Chapin before they left at 7:00am.

He thought we’d spend a few hours sitting around the house, catching up on each other’s life.

After he left at 11am to drive to his next stop, i rode to the gym, worked out, and biked home.

Biking and walking to get things done is really cool.
