Wholistic Fitness

“Resort to your Highest Weakness and enter there; dive into your deepest Pain for therein lies the purest of your Truth; Awaken to the understanding that each relationship we experience on this Plane(t) is perishable. Every belief structure; illusion. Every thought; changing. Every limit is a creation of mind. Know this to find your most pure progress toward Enlightenment; do that which scares you and put your Trust in God.”

– from my Meditation Journal as i prepared my mind for Mt. Taylor this week. Insights like these are why i risk everything to get to the Start Line. Ramp up your vibration; be brave and toe your Start line. Racing is not about winning; it’s about knowing ourselves.

Post Race Update from Grants, New Mexico

you guys…
you guys…

you guys ARE THE HIGHEST TRIBE OF FITNESS WARRIORS on this Plane(t) and NEVER FORGET THAT!

i did it.
i felt each and everyone of you who worked the Mantra, who lit a candle, who sent a prayer or even a loving thought!

i am once again a Mt. Taylor Winter Quadrathlon SOLOIST, baby!!!

and it feels sooooo go(o)d!!!

i know i’m looking a little gaunt in the self portrait i just took now in my motel room; hey, 5 hours and 1 minute burning through 5,091 calories and sustaining an average heart rate of, get this yogis: 172 for the full 5 hours…would probably get YOU looking rather gaunt as well!

i want you to know how high i am on your love, support, and most of all, your Devoted Practice…

i tried soooooooooooooo hard today! i really, really pushed myself and feel absolutely resplendent about
my first return to Tsidool as a Soloist in over a decade…a decade that included the total loss of my altitude fitness
by Serving in the Big City of LA for ten years.

today was very special and i will attempt to tell you more about it tomorrow. my body feels better than it did after
i raced this race in the eighties as a top 20 soloist…proof once again that our amazing humble Temple of WF
produces younger bodies and minds as our chronologic years tickle by…so much to share,
however it’s off to the Award Ceremonies to cheer on the noble warriors that went up and down that Sacred Mountain
much faster than new daddy ilg did today.

however, i did really, really well all things considered…miraculous and mystical in fact, to this broken back yogi who
doesn’t run but gesture miles and hasn’t been on a bike since fall except for one ride around the neighborhood last week…

i think i got 5th place in my age group and…get this; 22nd OVERALL!!!

if that is true, or even if it’s not;

I LOVE WF!!!
and
i LOVE YOU…without your Devoted Support of my Path,
the Path would not be much of a Path at all in the fitness/yogi forests…
then again,
the WF Path is easily recognized from all the forest paths…
it’s the Steep and Direct Path
right up to the Highest Summits…
because,
well, trust me;
the view from 11,311′ this morning?
it tends to produce a very pure, a very appreciative, and a very High Perspective to all the other
Paths
nearly out of sight
far,
far,
below…

Thank you Tsidool for my amazing pilgrimage up your Kachina Spirited flanks today;
i feel like i’m 12 again…running around these Sacred Mountains with the young kids…

more soon…

Om So Ti,
brother raven who can run like a wolf…

ps; i DEFINITELY won the “coaches” and the “yoga teachers” divisions! JAI, JAI!!!
