River is not shy in her beauty…
Eagle is not shy in his flight..
only Human’s – who’ve been inculcated with myriad parental/societal belief structures superimposed upon our true Nature – are shy (or underconfident).
allWays a distinct honor to give an overnight bunk to one of our Tribe’s most devoted students! Warrior Leaf executed the option to share a
half-day training camp with me before resuming his eastward travels…
here are a few shots..enjoy and be sure to schedule YOUR unique WF Half-Day Winter Sport Training Camp!
How Blessed C(om)e the inner rewards to the families who do what it takes to get out and do?
Steve Ilg, owner of Wholistic Fitness™ will be the first speaker in the “ Ready to Ride” session on Monday December 17th at the Durango Rec Center from 6:30p.m. until 8:00p.m.
at the Starting Gate…it’s Dewachen and NoName Pony vs. Ananda and Black Thunder…disregard the disinterested Cat Beings behind them…
on your Mark,
Get Set…
If not this year, when? C’mon…toe the Start Line with me again during this May’s 42nd Annual Iron Horse Bicycle Classic here in Durango! The Iron Horse is the second of my 3 Sacred Sweat Pilgrimages each year; Mt. Taylor Winter Quadrathlon (Feb) and Imogene Pass Run (Sept) being the other two…if you can crank all three in a calendar year? Trust me, it’s an AMAZING Wholistic Transformation…
ilg calls this posture; Apresthresholdhellasana. ilg reckons this is what the common man is afraid of…spewing Sacred Spit after 51 minutes of Threshold uphill running through snow…yes, feeble ilg missed breaking the 50-minute barrier up the 2,029′ walls of snow by 1 stinkin’ minute. aaaaargh!!! That’s okay…in failure, we learn more than through success. Next week? If it still hasn’t snowed? I already have a different route selection that just may save me those few seconds to break 50-minutes. Such goes the Warrior Mind.
