Tracy and I are off to walk a two mile loop with a stop to weed our plot in the community garden and harvest some tomatos! #artdudeplacement #100days https://constantine.name/100days

Day 3/100 – 30 minutes on a rail
(Part 4 of 104 in series, 100 Days of Training (2017))
Fell off many times, but remembering Stephane’s advice each time: “Go easy on yourself and simply get back on.” Exhaustion, anger, shaking, soaked in sweat, eternity. #artdudeplacement #100days

Insane line for ticketing at CDG… but got bumped up to business. C’est la vie? Merci #icelandair

Skull
Learned a new card game as the sun set! La vie en rose… :D …but excited to start my journey home tomorrow morning!

Memento Mori
At the Picasso Museum today– a photograph of Picasso “contemplating death”… some days I push myself physically, some days mentally.

Square Jean-XXIII
View from the square/garden behind Notre Dame.

Etre forte
pour etre utile. Sitting in a café, watching the Paris fire fighters rescue a cat. Can’t make this stuff up.

A relaxing morning at the Rodin museum and sculpture garden. Je pense…

Cote du Rhone
Oh mon dieu! The wine… The cheese…

Can a guy get a glass of wine around here? :P

It’s all about the wrist bands

An historic selfie
Williams and Stephan taking a selfie atop La Dame. There was a lot of historic discussion this week, and I think this photo sums up a lot.

Thank you Stany
We are all in Lisse today at the park in front of the Dame du Lac.

Three hours
If you’ve trained with the Yamak, you know. If you have not, you can not understand. Went to the limit- til my mind wanted to quit- and was then inspired by my friends! We start together: we finish together!

The hardest part
What is THE hardest part of parkour/art du déplacement? Knowing when to stop. Once you learn how to push yourself, it becomes very hard to admit that you must rest _now_, when your friends are still training. I am not injured, but if I continue today- if I continue now- I will break. So… mental strength now, so I can continue (forever. The morning I do not awake, is the day I quit!)
