Day two of the runstreak happened. I recorded while dripping sweat from my run (or maybe it was from the rain that started in while I was out). I ran 1.1 miles, and my shoelaces came untied at 0.9. Never try to run a quarter mile with loose shoes. It’s just bad.
So I’m doing something about it. I’m starting a runstreak and podcasting about it every day this week. I am going for 7 days, at least 1 mile a day. So we’ll see how it goes.
Mike Sweetman guest posts today to let us in on his Jedi Mind Trick to mindfulness and wellness so that we can unplug from our phones and plug into our lives.
The most important part of geekdom is the people. We want to talk about stuff we love, make friends, and most importantly, make sure that everyone feels appreciated.
Because there are so many things fighting against the hope I need. I’m choosing to feel the compassion and love I know is out there, that other people are projecting. I just had to be willing to let myself feel it. And I finally am. Because I choose to.
If your mouth is dry and you feel thirsty, it’s already too late–you’re on the way to dehydration. Even if you think you’re drinking enough, you’re probably not (we all overestimate how much we drink). So drink up, geeks!
Like that old dude in the cave told you at the beginning of the Legend of Zelda, it’s dangerous to go alone. So…here take this fitness advice!
Stop making excuses. You have to carve out time for the life you want to live and the way I want to live it.
In defense of Walmart bikes and discount running shoes. Expensive fitness gear is a luxury, rather than a necessity. Look at your needs and find the most appropriate gear you can for your personal situation. Even if the internet says what you buy is garbage, if it works for you, then it works for you.
If you want lasting wellness, you have to change the way you live your life every single day.
