i was about to break a promise

Orlando Fall foliage — Yesterday while running out of our neighborhood.

Disney University — About 3.5 miles from home to DU.

Disney's Contemporary Resort Convention Center — My old stomping grounds: Disney’s Contemporary Resort Convention Center.

Disney's Contemporary Resort — A crisp, sunny January morning.

Hours after a nine-mile run, and lunch, had the privilege to get a gym workout in too.

With a busy schedule, it almost didn’t happen. And i almost accepted my fate.

Spontaneous creativity happened, because i really didn’t want to break a promise to myself.

Felt amazing to not skip.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

So much intentionality in one simple decision

Disneyland Star Tours half-marathon 2016 — No, didn’t run this one, but did run near it.

Knowing i wouldn’t be running today (Monday) because of the cross-country flight, i ran yesterday; a rare Sunday run. Only 3.5 miles, super slow, reconditioning my feet to thrive with0ut orthotics.

So much intentionality from something so routine.

Yesterday was also the Disneyland Star Wars half-marathon. It was fun to run amongst so many other runners and walkers. The force was strong.

Patience, creativity, and determination

Will the Osborne Spectacle of Dancing Lights resurface at a different Disney location in the future? Patience will tell.

Holiday break was not a break from running, but it was a 13-day break from the gym. The longest break i can ever recall since 1999. This week’s gym workouts were significantly less intense. Why? Because there is no need to over do it and wake up with sore muscles. Patience, creativity, and determination.

Creativity is rampant here

Teenager studying — Intellect is accentuated with physical wellness.

Creativity is rampant here.

Where?

Anywhere you want it to be.

But it has to be a deeply embedded habit. Otherwise it won’t be a habit. (That’s called a blinding flash of the obvious.)

Last night we jogged six mailboxes, but we mixed it up (got creative) to offset some chest pains.

Instead of jogging six consecutive mailboxes, we jogged three, then walked three, then completed the second three, and finished with walking three more mailboxes to finish where we began.

Guess what?

No pain.

Plus, a remarkably surprising thing happened. The second jog of three mailboxes was the fastest pace we have ever had, and we didn’t even try.

Why?

Because we were warmed up. It was an aha moment.

And even at the fastest pace, no chest pain.

Can you do an 8-miler before heading to Montreal?

Yesterday, Epcot Early Morning hours rope drop.

Can you do an 8-miler before heading to Montreal?

Have been thinking about how to pull this off this morning, knowing that i need to be out the door at 7:45am for Orlando International airport.

Bags packed last night? Check.

All other logistics taken care of last night? Check.

Ok. Time for a run. Check.
