Today I woke ready for a day off from any kind of activity. The weather cooperated with my plans by pouring rain and staying cloudy most of the day. This made staying inside and getting a bunch of administrative work done.
I did take advantage of a short break in the weather to get a little fly fishing in. I can't really call it fishing, it would be more accurate to call it casting. Not only did I not catch a fish I didn't even see one. Oh well, it was still fun to get out.
My motto is simple- you have to get out to find out. I love to get outside and get moving, the activity is just a consequence of what I'm feeling, the weather and what my friends are doing. I ride mountain, road and cross bikes. I've done 13 Ironman races. I ski alpine, AT and nordic. I SUP and surf, though both pretty poorly. Trail running is a blast, and of course camping is cool. But getting out isn't always about getting outside. Get out of your comfort zone at work and in your personal life. Take on a new project, make a new friend or just try that new restaurant in town that always smells good. Enjoy your life, you've only got one shot and the clock is always ticking.
