Beginning Friday I will do all of my running outside regardless of the weather, which means no more treadmill! 22 miles per day everyday this week and then on Sunday 23 miles. The longer the distance becomes that I run every day the more I live by the philosophy of one day at a time and making each day count.
Today's book excerpt from "365" (pg. 292)
"Another observation I have
made regarding “today” is that today is all I can control. I can’t control tomorrow because it’s not
here yet. When I realize that today is
all that I can truly control, I instantly feel empowered. When I break any goal down to what I can do
today, I feel instantly empowered because I know that I can do it. I am in control.
In your life, which is
today, you will either ACT or REACT. It’s
really quite that simple. If you don’t have
goals broken down to today, you will probably react. As I’ve stated earlier in the book, the only
limit to what you can accomplish is your imagination and your level of
commitment to making it real. By
realizing that today is all you have, you can eliminate one of the greatest
obstacles to success – yourself! By
empowering yourself, you are not limiting yourself. You have no idea what you are capable of. The only way you can find out is by giving
yourself a chance."

If your are interested in helping me complete a full marathon every day, there are two ways you can help, first and foremost, order the book, secondly, tell a few others about what it is that I am doing. We can make a difference one person at a time.
