Well isn't that just the cat's meow! I can now share with you my progress of biking and well any other activity via Runtastic. Just take a gander to your right and bam there it is!
Seeing how I love biking so and do so much of it why not. And well I always like to track my progress and see how I am doing.
Goal for next year - Compete! Yes indeed I am hoping to get into racing, possibly some Enduro races, the 24 Hours of Adrenaline is a big goal of mine I would love to accomplish. And well we all need goals to strive for! So winter is coming but that won't stop me from riding and preparing for next summer!
And on that note I am off for for a rip!
Enjoi the ride.
You know there is a good saying that I do indeed
think is so awesome and very true.
"If you're not falling, you're not trying hard enough."
It holds true in so many aspects in life not just my sport. When you fall it does hurt, sometimes on the surface and sometimes deeper down inside. But with that pain comes learning. It is wise to pay attention to that hurt. Take from it what you must and move forward in the attempts to not "fall" in the same manner. But sometimes it takes a few falls to really learn and that is just a part of life. I have my fair share of scar's bumps and bruises but I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. I have learned more from my falls I bet then a good chunk of my successes. Funny how that works but it does.
The biggest thing with falling is to get back up, know that the pain is temporary, pride in ones self knowing you gave it your all lasts forever. So I will continue on my path knowing that next spill will come and when it does I will smile, laugh and enjoy it - even if it hurts. And just get back up and keep rollin along.
On a lighter note, but somewhat related I love my new bike. It is fantastic and really one of my favorite things. I love to get out and ride. Flying through the trails exploring the wilderness and getting to see this beautiful countryside. And of course taking in my fair share of bails! There is something to be said for getting out and riding, it is like an addiction almost. Feels so good. So surreal and peaceful. Sun shining down through the tree's. So quite even in the center of the city it is my getaway in the day to day and I am grateful for it. Now if only I could drag my ass to the mountains more and really get some good riding in!!
Oh how I Enjoi my Giant.
Wow where has the time gone?
Seems like just yesterday it was spring.
Summer has come and gone and it barely took the time to say hello.
How rude!
So what exactly happened. Right life. I used to write about that ...
Interesting how it comes and goes inspiration to write hits when it does and well sometimes that doesn't happen for well apparently months at a time seeing as my last post was back in August. Whoops? Nah not a whoops, the whole point of writing isn't to force it but to let it happen when the inspiration hits you. Many things inspire me some more then others. Some simple as music and some would be much more complex. We may not always have that inspiration we need, which can be without a doubt tough! But when one does have that inspiration however best watch out for there is no stopping them!
Now then I do believe an update would be in order seeing as I am here now. It has been a busy summer... wait can call it summer even? For technicalities we shall let it remain as such. I digress. Where was I, right life back on track as it were. I have enjoyed the past year it has been an adventure with some good changes and well one of the best things was a certain lack of change oddly enough. I have been extremely happy going into the office day in and day out. We have been busy which I love and I can say without a doubt that I do indeed love my job. Lucked out finally finding what I was looking for. Somewhere I belong, am challenged and most importantly appreciated. It is a great feeling to say the least.
Winter is fast approaching and I am excited for it. Work is keeping me busy. Life is good. Finding more reasons to smile every day. Taking it day by day and just going with the flow making sure to enjoy life and those things that inspire us.
And with that I bid thee adieu until our next encounter.
Inspired to Enjoi.
