Running on…

Safari icon
Which way?

 

One of the most overlooked joys of daily blogging is that you are the boss of what you write.

i don’t know many people in the world who blog everyday. And of the ones who do, not many are runners.

If there’s a run today, it will have to be 1,200 miles north.

And if there’s blogging tomorrow (like i’d miss a day) it’ll be 1,200 miles away.

Running on…portable joy.

Life and exercise, on the road again

Yesterday’s short drive to Orange County Convention Center astonished me when i tried to comprehend how diligently i exercised even with the massive travel schedule for the final 10 years at Disney Institute (15 years at DI, 30 years total at WDW).

Didn’t see any early morning (business traveler) runners yesterday.

Never have any more unremarkable days?

Can we get to a point where our days are no longer unremarkable?

Driving to Detroit in 90 minutes to fly home from what is now officially the last business trip as a Walt Disney World Cast Member.

Yesterday’s run was the next to last road trip run and in a few minutes, this morning’s run will be the last as a Cast Member.

Our lives click by one unremarkable day at a time.

The opportunity is to work hard to get to a place where we never have any more unremarkable days.

Change is the only constant

What’s our obligation to exercise even under extenuating circumstances?

Life on the road can be a bit of a broken record…

Three for three days (of four) so far without exercise.

Life is hard.

Figure it out.

And be flexible, forgiving, creative, and determined the entire way.

Do not let them cancel your plans for a lifetime of vibrant health

Rather than run this morning, will take a rain check. Again.

On the drive from the hotel to IAH, to fly to MCO, Some Family time, instead.

Detours happen.

Enjoy and embrace the occasional detours, but do not let detours cancel your plans for a lifetime of vibrant health.
