HAVE WE FOUND THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH?
YESTERDAY'S RACE WENT PERFECT. From start to finish, I felt amazing. And, from the looks of my competitors, even though we'd put in massive efforts and were exhausted...
... most of us had the same look.
Dirt,road.
Young, old.
All of us were happy,
and smiling.
How could that be?
How could there be joy in so thoroughly flogging ourselves?
You know the answer to that
Here's the real question...
... is that the key to fountain of youth?
If so, why?
Unequivocally, yes.
Why?
Because it's child's play.
The great Dan Sullivan says (warns?)...
... As you age you must continually get younger friends.
For most people, that isn't relevant.
For us, it is.
If we don't, we,
the active,
the childish,
the energetic,
will find ourselves alone.
When endlessly fascinated with something,
like we are with
these races,
or business,
or writing...
... we don't retire,
we keep getting better,
closer to our maximum potential.
(Sometimes I feel I need to explain that sentiment. If I knew what I know now, and had the time I have now, I would have been waywayway faster than I am now. Now, I'm just a lot closer than I've even been to my potential.)
Stay young my friends.
