At some point in life we have to decide which things make sense to do regularly, for the rest of our lives.

The older we get, the more difficult it is to break a boundary or limit

The older we get, the more difficult it is to break a boundary or limit. Why? Because we’ve been there, done that.
We’ve tested our limits and we think we know them well.
Remember when we were 13?
Nearly every new thing was an opportunity to push our limits.
Riding 12.6 miles round trip was pathetic compared to the 170-mile Cross Florida Ride (completed in ’85 and again in ’86) done in one day.
But for a 13-year old, it was his biggest athletic moment.
It was cool to witness.
Be well today.

Why milestones help us
Why do milestones help us?
Why be intentional enough to pick a special day versus any day?
Because what we are embarking on is something that will be with us for the rest on our lives.
Right?
The other thing begun in April was running.
But that goes back to 2000.
April 15, tax day, to be exact.
And in 2000 there was not as powerful a connection to storytelling as there was in 2009.
