Reminded why running is such a flexible choice

Reminded why running is such a flexible (and logical) exercise choice.

Running (and walking) is insanely portable.

First time away from home since i stopped running two months ago, and not being able to run is severely limiting. Have run for the last 17 years, no matter where i traveled to.

By the way, important to note that i began bicycling March 15, 60 days ago.

Why?

Because March 14 was the last running day.

Since running is off the table indefinitely, i could walk, but.

Yeah, there you have it.

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.

Crazy how important those three mornings are

Crazy how important those three mornings are.

Monday.

Wednesday.

Friday.

Each morning there’s a 25-mile roundtrip bicycle ride to the gym. About an hour each way, plus an hour in the gym.

And each bicycle ride means an additional day of no running.

i really like accumulating an increasing number of “rest-from-running” days.

Biking is healing a part of my whole that would be suffering if there was no legitimate replacement for running.

Had my paradigm destroyed yesterday

Winter Garden Florida
Biked 24 miles round trip to drop off some paperwork. Normal paradigm is to drive that distance for an errand.

 

Had my paradigm destroyed yesterday.

Up until yesterday, i thought of the gym as strength exercises and core exercises.

Charles, a personal trainer about my age, observed a few of the things i was doing and this ultimately ended with me getting schooled.

What if every exercise is a core exercise?

It should be.

And thanks to Charles, i’m ready to .think .differently about core.

The constant challenge to find time to exercise

The constant challenge to find time to exercise is enough to make a sane person lose their mind. (Tweet that)

Out of nowhere, a way to mix it up at the gym

 

Greasing the neurological groove.

Thank you to Craig Nickoloff for the share yesterday.

The rule is simple. After each exercise, you should not feel tired, you should still feel refreshed.

Changed up the reps i normally do, but didn’t change the weight.

Not only physiologically stimulating, but also psychologically invigorating.
