Day 28/100 – maximum effort

(Part 29 of 104 in series, 100 Days of Training (2017))

I don’t know why Deadpool’s catch-phrase has stuck with me… but it has. If you meet me in person, you’ll find I’m almost always wearing this little reminder, “maximum effort / effort maximal”. For me it means put in the maximum effort *now* which leads to *long term* success. …and so, out the door for another run. #artdudeplacement https://constantine.name/100days and

Day 34/100 – the Master and I

(Part 36 of 104 in series, 100 Days of Training (2017))

I was recently listening to a podcast with Jerzy Gregorek where he was talking about our internal ‘voices’. (the Fatalist, the Master, et al) He was describing how weight lifting had awaked his internal Master… it clicked for me this morning as I went out the door. “fitness” versus “training”. Solitude. Hard work well done. My internal Master — the master of me, not a master of others — has slowly awakened these past few years and knew what I should do this morning. 20 min trail run up here, work on this one route until my hands have had enough.
