Friday the 13th is now the luckiest day of the whole year

Map My Run screen shot — Yesterday’s Friday the 13th “faster pace” run.

What if someone was bold enough to proclaim that Friday the 13th is no longer bad luck? In fact, they’d even go as far as saying Friday the 13th is the luckiest day of the whole year.

Wanted to run much farther than five miles yesterday (Friday, February 13, 2015).

A busy morning schedule made compromise the only option. Five miles no longer feels like a serious run – too short, but at least it was a five-miler that felt valuable.

(Photo above: After 1st warmup mile, the next four miles are 8min/mile or quicker, without too much effort.)

Prior to retirement, five miles was always considered an amazing run.

More or less, pick one

(photo: To keep exercising we need to remain motivated, which means we need to find a million ways… took a left yesterday for the first time and found a glorious golf cart path.)

The more you know the less you need.

For example.

Health is wealth.

Not a leather couch nor an amazingly cool HD TV.

In doing less can we do more?

The stopwatch screen shots can be boring to the casual observer, and yet they paint the picture of a person who only preaches what is practiced. There is a notion that in doing less we can actually do more.

It is up to us to define our ‘more’.

Take charge. Make your rules. Set your goals. Be on fire. Be that kind of person.

All day. Everyday.

The real issue isn’t whether she’ll wear a bikini or not

Live well coin shaped like Mickey Mouse — Living well is a challenging thing to focus on day in and day out

What’s the bottomline when you think so deeply it may cause others discomfort?

The real issue isn’t whether she’ll wear a bikini or not. The real issue is whether or not she’ll exercise regularly, eat sensibly, and get adequate rest.

But when there are numbers to hit, the job comes first, no?

There are other equally important issues – like four others to be exact – but that’s a conversation for another day.

If you’ll indulge this train of thought, it goes deeper with seven more questions for the author, here.

The longer we wait, the lower the odds of failure?

(photo: running every time with a camera and stopwatch are just two of a million ways to stay engaged)

The longer we wait, the lower the odds of failure?

If we can procrastinate indefinitely on the urge to quit, we may just get to a point where quitting would actually be impossible.
