Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
What stokes our fire to carry on in spite of the constant cries that it’s too difficult to stay motivated and too mundane to have fun with exercise?
A compelling (and hopefully fun) goal.
So yeah, let’s try another comeback.
Last year’s comeback was stalled by double hernia (hernia occurred June 7) repair surgury in July.

Four for four and 55?
Four consecutive nights getting eight hours sleep. Months, maybe longer since that’s happened.
Why?
Busy.
What happens with the insidiously slow change in our sleep intake?
Some say we don’t need as much as we age.
Not if we are inactive. But what if our body needs the rest, then what?
Unplanned 55-minute run. About 10 minutes longer than normal.
Felt it at the end. Probably psychological?

Al Sharpton has lost 170 pounds. Saw him on Oprah last night (watched five minutes) as we were searching for which channel was televising the Seahawks versus the 49ers.
Looking at the photos throughout his life and looking at him now…
Wow!

Watched Jamaica’s Usain Bolt repeat as World’s Fastest Man at yesterday’s 2013 Track & Field World Championships.

We all struggle with staying motivated. All of us. Even those that don’t seem to struggle.
In 1999 I wasn’t struggling to stay motivated, was struggling to get motivated.
And April Fool’s Day I ran from my mailbox to the first neighbor’s mailbox. And did that five days that first week.
The second week, from our mailbox, ran past the first neighbor’s mailbox to the next neighbor’s. Did that five times that week.
Third week three mail boxes a day. Fourth week, four a day for a week. A month before the equivalent to a lap around a track.
Now….the run-one-mailbox-a-day with a new twist.
Each day add one mailbox.
Today is day four and double inguinal hernia repair surgery return to running week.
