He’d rather run on Saturday nights.

Works for me.

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.

Should i exercise or not?

Should i exercise or not?

What is gained if i do?

What is lost if i don’t?

Wow, those are two powerful questions. You’d think the two answers would change everything.

The distinct outcome in the difference between the habits we nurture or don’t nurture – the contrast between surviving the daily grind or thriving in spite of it.

Getting eight hours of sleep is a renewed focus

Eight nights ago i got 10 hours of sleep. This is big. And every night since then has been 8 or 7.5, including the last three nights clocking in at eight.

Didn’t feel like doing it

Real life in real time. Post written 100 days ago. Photo taken one day ago.

 

Didn’t feel like doing it.

What?

Run.

But you love running.

Not in the dark, not in the cold, and not when other responsibilities are pressuring me for attention.

In spite of those, i ran anyway.

Why?

My health is something i’m willing to protect.

Skipping a run makes it easier to skip a second run. Skipping a second makes the third skip easier too.

Deadly.
