2016 is a great opportunity to waste time

Clever Church billboard
Yesterday morning while running past a Church billboard.

 

Wasting time with God is my goal this year.

Too much too soon?

College buddy reunion
One handful of early arrivals.

 

When you reunite with people you see only on an annual basis it is so exciting to catch up in person. Last night there where only a handful of us. Today, another three handfuls arrive.

And when you reunite with people you haven’t seen in a decade or two, it gets even more exciting.

Asked Franz for Grace

After my 800 meter race yesterday at 9am, my next event (1500) wouldn’t be until tonight (yes, a day later) at 8pm. The relief of running one event pain free was satisfying enough to not need more races.

The heat advisory was well above normal. Not a fan of evening running. Plus the threat of late afternoon thunderstorms.

Quickly decided to pack it up and head back to Disney home.

But would the Marriott allow for an early check out?

Explained things to Franz at the front desk, who explained that i would be obligated for the charge whether i stayed or not.

Simply asked for some Grace.

It was granted in minutes.

Thank you Marriott.

In the wild places it’s easy to tune into a higher power.

Why?

Because there is little else to do.

While we can rely on urban nature to refresh us, there is something inexplicable about the wild.
