Did Isaac Newton exercise?

Map My Run screen shot
Yesterday’s run included 10 miles of negative splits before backing off the pace.

 

What if impossible really is nothing?

Isaac Newton is remembered for saying the obvious:

A body at rest tends to stay at rest. A body in motion tends to stay in motion.

Back to back excellent interval workouts had me wanting feeling a change was necessary yesterday.

Some LSD.

Some long, slow, distance.

Maybe a 10-11 miler.

A different turn about four miles in would provide a route not run before. How far would it be?

It turned out to be 16.1 miles.

Exercise like you mean it means a victory over this

(The 40 classrooms are only for the ninth grade center – somewhere between 1,300 and 1,400 ninth graders.)

Exercising like you mean it means a victory over this:

It means a victory over having inactivity being our lifetime habit.

Inactivity must be replaced with it’s opposite, activity.

Why does it seem like the obvious choice isn’t obvious?

Do not rest until you are no longer afraid

The codependence of waiting for New Years to make resolutions is simply ridiculous.

These annual New Year’s resolutions never work.

Right?

So then why the heck do we repeat this stupid cycle?

Habit?

What about this harsh reality most think is invisible:

We really have no intentions of changing.

Because we are small.

This is a human condition. And it is hypocritical to everything we dream of.

Enter the real barrier.

Fear.

If we actually resolve and make our change, we will have to live differently.

And this scares us, and we lie to ourselves that it doesn’t.

The solution, if we are really serious, is to not rest until we are no longer afraid.

Find a million ways.
