Uncover your inner athlete!

Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.. Each morning in Africa a lion awakes - it knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve.


No matter if you are the lion or the gazelle, when the sun comes up you had better be running!

Life reflections and running

Life is way to short friends. Unfortunately death comes upon us all too soon.

I have been reflecting on this fact this week as some very strange things have been occurring. A friend and running buddy is off to pursue his dream job on the other side of the world in the process packing in a very good corporate job. I can only commend him on his actions and think that many more of us should be doing this or considering it now.

I am so glad that he has found that which he wants to be doing with the rest of his life. It is a stark reminder of what I have been saying here all along – ‘Life is not inside your office making someone else rich, nor is it on your couch stuffing potato chips into your mouth while getting fat and lazy’. All this stuff is superficial.

Do yourself a favour this weekend, throwaway the Wii and Playstation, turn off the TV and computer and head out that door. Savour every minute out there performing man’s greatest freedom as you don’t want your last moments to be spent on the couch.

Running together folks (and beating obesity) stride for stride on a life changing ride! – Sean Muller
