The real metric takes a lifetime to measure

One-mailbox-a-day.

We began, as a Family, August 6, 2018.

We are in week 13.

Nine mailboxes each day.

Why aren’t we at 13 mailboxes?

Because i’m flexible with my wife’s and son’s progress.

And on four different Mondays, we opted to not increase another mailbox and instead ran the same number as the previous week.

There is no hurry to reach a distance goal.

No race we must be ready for.

The transformation isn’t measured in the distance we cover, it’s measured in the consistency of the effort – the longer you stay with transformation, the easier it is to measure the long-term commitment.

Real success will be measured in our ability to stay active (and it doesn’t have to be running) for a lifetime.

Love when a plan comes together

Love when a plan comes together.

Because the speaker request was for yesterday, a Tuesday, i didn’t have to cancel any workouts.

Seems insignificant, but when you only workout three times a week, missing one puts you down 33%.

And because the 2.5-hour session was “Amazing”, this morning’s workout will be icing on the cake.

No consistency, no success

Passion definition
No consistent passion, no success.

 

No consistency, no success.

Over the course of your lifetime:

Contrast consistent exercise versus inconsistent exercise.

Contrast consistently balanced nutrition versus inconsistently balanced nutrition.

Contrast consistent rest versus inconsistent rest.

Makes a compelling case for achieving successful wellness.

Two short runs in 13 days is nothing to brag about

bright red fall colors on campus

 

(photo: yesterday’s run through University of Iowa campus. Mostly the colors are just beginning, except here.)

How does one overcome the inevitable and consistent setbacks?

While in Iowa there was one short run in four days which is better than zero.

Too much to do this morning (now back home at Walt Disney World) to have time to run. So now it’s one short run in five days.

And in two days a six-day business trip to a cold climate.

Could end up being only two runs in 13 days.

Note to self: figure it out.
