Darn It

Haven’t run in five (5) days.

How is that possible?

Mister “you have to find a way” or your doomed, Mr. Internet five-a-day blogger, Mr practice what you preach, Mr. self-appointed wellness expert.

Yeah, tell us why you have “failed” this week.

First of all, who am I to be calling myself such names, with that stern tone?

Ease up already mister.

There is an inherent challenge with an impossible goal.

It is, well, quite literally, impossible.

To think that we could consistently get regular exercise for the rest of our lives is preposterous.

Rubbish.

It can happen. It will happen. It is happening.

Went to the gym for strength and core training last night. And, after a few commitments this morning (I’m Off today), I’ll go for a run.

Dream big. Get started. Never stop.

Wait There’s More

What do Guido Mueller and Roger Bannister have in common?

Most people know Roger Bannister was the first person (1956) to run one mile in less than four-minutes.

So what did Guido Muller do? By the way, this is the same Guido as in yesterday’s post.

People who know, claim that what Guido Muller did in August at the 2009 Master’s Track & Field World Championships in Finland, is equivalent to what Roger Bannister did – humanly impossible.

I was there when it happened. In fact, I was filming all the 400 meter final races. And then this happened:

Impossible is nothing. Carpe diem.

World Record Holder Reveals Secret

Let’s shake it up a little bit today. You good with that? Good. Let’s go back to this past summer.

Here’s the scene. Early August, 2009. Sunny, clear, 70 degrees.

Finland.

Enter a German man.

PS. If you are too busy to follow this and invest two more minutes, please go look in the mirror and say something like, “I really do want to get healthy and stay healthy, but I just really don’t want to work very hard at it.”

Good Morning Class

Okay. Short and sweet.

Today’s lesson is yesterday’s lesson.

Old news?

Are you kidding me?

You better read yesterday’s post over and over until you can’t see straight.

Maybe then you’ll start your change – the change you want desperately to make.

The change you deserve. You owe it to yourself.

See you yesterday….

Will You Please?

Will you change the way you think about diet and exercise?

Or will you give up, like you always do?

Hey, you’re an adult. You get this. I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know.

Don’t do it.

Don’t cave.

Don’t give up.

You can do it.

Be smarter. Think differently. Act differently. Don’t do it all in one month.

You have the rest of your life, but only if you get started and never quit.

One day at a time.

Start small and simple. Think long-term. Dust off your indomitable will. Never quit.

When you die, then you can relax. You good with that?
