What if you tried to live according to what’s possible

Highway Patrol speed trap near Disney
In movies, this is called the establishing shot. Is it a trap? Or are they helping a distressed driver or wild animal?  As i got closer it was obvious…

In movies, this is called the closeup. We can clearly see the details. No distress. No wildlife. Highway Patrol speed trap near Disney.

Establishing shot as i biked home from the gym yesterday. Florida vultures on sidewalk. Highway is far from sidewalk. What could this mean?

A dead Armadillo. And a meal for two lucky (and hungry) vultures.

Open meadow near Walt Disney World. All of today’s photos were taken on the 20k bike ride home from the gym. These final two pictures less than a mile from home. The top right flower looks like a lamb with big ears. Didn’t notice until this morning.

 

What if you tried to live according to what’s possible for your future instead of what’s been defined by your past.

Can you see yourself as vibrantly healthy?

Active.

Alive.

Joyful.

Content.

At peace.

Rode a bicycle to my annual physical yesterday.

This was on top of the 40k bike trip to gym and back.

Gonna be 59 in exactly three months.

Dear Future me

Windermere Runners Club summer 2016
Windermere Runners Club summer 2016, doing 100-meter repeats with the teenagers. No regrets. This photo captures us jogging back to starting line to “repeat” another 100-meter sprint (at about 70% effort).

 

Dear Future me,

Don’t wait until you are “old and fragile” to remember what your 93-year old Grammy (in-law) said, “Health is wealth.”

I should have focused on my health, but…

I could have focused on my health, but…

I would have focused on my health, but…

Never get bored with the basics. Scout ahead and plan accordingly.

Only an hour away, Two Medicine and East Glacier were firsts for all three of us.

Comparing the real thing to the photos is a great way to judge for yourself instead of taking the photographer’s word (lens angle).

Making future reservations sight unseen could lead to disappointment when photos are misleading.

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.

 

Here’s to hoping our future is the best part

Last night the pool warmed up enough for us to enjoy it before dinner.

 

Here’s to hoping our future is the best part. And yes, i’m referring to our health. Crazy. Which is perfect.

Katie’s future is so bright, it reminds us of us

Heading off to University?
Heading off to University?

 

Katie’s future is so bright, it reminds us of us.

She’s heading off to University in two months on a soccer scholarship.

A life full of physical activity.

After college there will be plenty of time to easily and quickly stop being physically active.

As predictable as the rising sun, no?
