We just pushed ourselves. We simply kept at it. Afterward we met a dear friend for a drink and dinner. We shared stories, good wishes, heart felt thanks for being there for each other and gratitude. We knew each others highs , lows, missteps and grand moments and took it all in. The pushing and […]

Feel the day
The Crossfit workout was intense. That is the way it was built to be. Afterward, we sat having some green tea and reflecting on the morning adventure. It is not complicated really. We just want to feel the day. Feel the exhaustion. Feel that drain and then feel the rebirth of energy. The key word […]
The power of the possible
The power of the possible. As the day winds down I couldn’t help but think about all the “no” I heard in conversations. You know that conversation..don’t try it or it will never work..or they will say no so why even ask….well you get the idea. But ,also I saw some great positive moments , […]
Commit and dig in
There we were at Crossfit again. The Crossfit workout was a combination of sit ups, kettle bell swings and wall ball shots. Once it registered with me I just heard myself say…why not. A total of 100 sit ups and 110 kettle bell swings and then 110 wall ball shots. But done in Crossfit ladder […]
The rope climb
I remember being in gym class in school…the early years. The challenge was the rope climb. Climb that rope, touch the ceiling, get back down. Try not to get rope burns. No one wore gloves then so you always “burned” your hands on the rope sooner or later. It was such a test of wills. […]
The quiet, part 2
The quiet seems to have hit a chord. There was a time when quiet was alive and well. There was a time when quiet was better understood. Appreciated. Respected. Cherished. Now it seems that it is just that place you have to get through to arrive at the “important, good stuff” .. Nothing could be […]
The quiet
It was early as I headed out for the morning Crossfit. As my car crossed the expansion bridge I heard some horns honking and saw a few cars cutting other cars off and everyone ,it seemed, was on a phone or texting…whether in a car or on a bike or walking on the street. It […]
A state of grace
It had been quite a while since the Crossfit workout almost brought me to my knees and nausea. I mean they are all challenging and test your very fiber but this one was different. I don’t know why but just was. The 20 minutes ticked off like the clock was broken and only worked sporadically. […]
A morning moment
It was 5 pull ups, 10 wall balls, 15 kettle bell swings. As many rounds as possible over a 20 minute time frame. Crossfit at its most basic and challenging. 9 rounds later there was about 20 seconds left. 20 seconds. Everything is relative. 20 seconds is so little a moment in time. Yet 20 […]
High five the day
The ageless experiment. The words just make sense to me. An experiment in ageless living. A challenge to live beyond categories. Live beyond boundaries. It applies to all ages and stages in life. Don’t buy into some false restriction that others may want to impose on you. Live each day as the experiment that it […]
