Okay Already

Okayyy already. I am done, done, done, and starting, starting starting. Not everyone needs to know what that means, but it absolutely MUST mean something to me. Today, see above, I am going to drop the BS and start living. I can't merely exist by the computer waiting for the next shoe to drop. Though I don't quite really do this, it sometimes appears as such. I am going to begin doing and not thinking of what I am going to do. Such a long time with progress in such a circular path and moving forward at a progressive rate that is not totally fulfilling. Mind, Body and Spirit (Of the Universe and Within) will be the hallmarks of my life.

The stress fracture in my Femur has had me down for a while, but I am far from out. I will not do everything I can to recover from it and my sanity in general. Didn't post about my Half-Marathon in April, but it was a great first attempt on a hilly Nashville course in 2:05:15. The frustrating part is the resulting stress fracture that resulted I guess from over training. I can get on a bicycle and I can hike. Camping this weekend at Rock Island State park should be a great time to reach out and find the extra something.

Twists and Turns

Life just seems to be a series of twists and turns and when it stops twisting and turning I just have to do something to make the cycle reoccur. Another start of a school year in IT land and things have gone fairly smooth, which is likely the reason I am worn out or vise-versa. Just go with the flow.

Thinking

“The third-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the
majority. The second-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking
with the minority. The first-rate mind is only happy when it is
thinking.” -- A. A. Milne 

First Day of 2011

Well, happy new year. I am beginning the new year slowly with the only primary “resolve” is to increase my fitness and nutrition and find peace. Now these may not seem measurable goals, though I have specifics in mind to which I WILL adhere. For one thing I will spend more time in retrospection and study as opposed to mindless internet activities. Now this also is part of my resolve. I guess to put it shortly 2011 is the year of TOTFIT and the beginning of the lifestyle. My goal for the day is to get a three mile run in and to get some things done around the house. I have already begun by working some in the “man cave” and will continue as the day goes on. Tomorrows goal will be church for one. I will be the best husband, father, son, relative and friend also that I can be. I will work on keeping anxieties to a minimum. Well, ran 4 miles on a cloudy day. It was a nice relaxing first day of the year. The intent of the run was for the Greenway which was flooded. I instead ran from the Greenway home and then a couple of laps around the block to make four miles.

Happy New Year

I start the new year with no "major" goals. I would just like to continue on the path on which I have chosen and improve generally. I guess in most aspects, "Life is Good". Hopefully, I will begin this year to put my thoughts more in writing, just not sure if here or elsewhere.. To all, a Happy New Year around the globe..
