Move because you can.

i mean, why wouldn’t you?

Because it’s too challenging?

Today begins run-one-mailbox-a-day-for a week

Swimming pool float
Took this photo yesterday to text Cheryl a question about our pool floats.

 

Today begins “run-one-mailbox-a-day-for a week”.

Why?

The rest-break from running has been 19 months – 18 months longer than intended, and it’s time to see if the rest worked.

Years of chronic foot pain prompted a last ditch effort to try a remedy (prolonged rest) i had never attempted.

Just came back from a super slow jog from our mailbox to our neighbor’s mailbox – roughly 100 meters.

PS. Today is opening day for the 2018 Masters Track and Field National Championships in Spokane, Washington.

Coincidence?

No.

Risk taking is key to transformational change

 

Risk taking is key to transformational change.

Kathrine Switzer, the first woman to run Boston faced a tough challenge – she wasn’t invited, she wasn’t welcomed, and some wanted her out, immediately.

What Kathrine did became a catalyst for what five years later was a transformational change in the Boston Marathon’s policy of “men only”.

Kathrine’s courage, and continued advocacy, eventually led to including a women’s marathon race in the Olympic Games.

Time for a new inventory of running shorts

USATF Gear
USATF member price is $31. Tried to find it cheaper on Amazon…

 

USATF gear
Not available on Amazon. Ever.

 

Part of staying active is being organized with your structure and processes for allowing you to streamline your wellness efforts.

Having plenty of the optimal gear for your karma helps minimize hassles.

Bought the last four available pairs of official USATF running shorts two weeks ago.

Ideally, 10 pairs is the goal.

Recycle or trash the older 10 pairs.

Held on to the tag pictured above to remind me to look for more asap.

Today (two weeks later) is my asap.

Five more pairs magically appeared in USTF Store inventory.

Lucky me.

Note: of all the running shorts i’ve worn, these are the best for me.

You should NEVER have to scramble to find what you need to exercise.

Ever.
