For every runner who tours the world running marathons, there are thousands who run to hear the leaves and listen to the rain, and look to the day when it is suddenly as easy as a bird in flight.

Life Does Jed: You Will Never Be Ready

One of the things that has really struck me throughout this tour is how many people say something along the lines of ….I’m not ready for “that.” “That” might be a 5k, half-marathon, marathon, triathlon, Ironman, etc. My question is this, When will we ever be ready?

We are never ready. I wasn’t…

Needed this. 9 weeks ready or not I’m going to try….Thanks Jed.

This. This is so very, very true. 

Felt very compelled to reblog this because I hear this in my head all the time. Learning to just do, to just dive in, to brush fear and doubt aside with every step I take.

I also had bosses on my way up who taught me key lessons: One is how important action is — to always be looking for something to do that moves the ball. Don’t sit still. My aphorism for it is, better a moving turkey than a sitting duck. If you’re just standing still, whatever you’re doing is going to get shot apart. I also learned that you have to act on the best information you have, and to not wait for the nonexistent perfect level of information.
Business/career advice that’s also applicable to running, me thinks.
