Just being... trying not to do anything...

Ok, that is harder than it sounds.

I have said, and been told, that I am a human BEing not a human DOing, so I ought just be content being... not doing.

Why is that so hard?

We are conditioned to do... not just to exist and experience (which you can do without doing ;)

Yeah.

What a weekend... spent some time up North in Grande Cache with Alli, her brother, her father and step-mother. We were all out there to help Ryan work his way through his first Death Race... with Ryan being the second of the siblings to accomplish this amazing feat... and accomplish it he did. He endured like a trooper from start to finish, and did not complain through the entire thing.

One word for that - awesome :)

The weather was the pits, which put a real damper on the training plans for the weekend, but I got back and got my butt in the pool. I did manage a solid 1,500 - 2,000 metre swim in Hubbles Lake yesterday with Alli, and another 2k plus in the pool this morning, with a run still to come... so not all is lost :)

I don't know the significance of this post, but to say that I still exist, and things are moving forward... each day better than the last, or at least different, which is better :)

It's just me... existing... in Calgary.

For now.

Over and out :))

you make it sound like you knew that saying before.

really you were told you were a human being(not doing).... THEN you started saying it.

for the record...
