He’s lost 49 pounds in three months

Map My Run screen shot
Minutes before our neighborly conversation, i had just finished this run/walk.

 

He’s lost 49 pounds in three months. He said he has so much more energy now. He’s been retired for a few years and has (theoretically) much more discretionary time to rearrange focus on his priorities.

Perhaps sounding self-righteous a second time, i said, “Reaching a big goal is the first step. Maintaining that goal for a lifetime is the real challenge.”

Everyone knows this even if it’s not on their radar.

Felt good to be ordinary with a small exception

Yesterday’s run was ordinary, except for one thing – mile four.

 

Felt good to go nine miles. Felt good to dip near seven minutes in mile four. The little things can be good for our soul, if we aren’t too busy to notice.
