Hi folks, welcome! One week ago, I told my movement and dance teacher (not that I like to dance, I just want to move freely into late old age - I'm a sprightly 71, right now), Rebecca, that I had managed to induce a case of plantar fasciitis heel pain in my left foot, by changing my running shoes, only one month before my next Ironman race, and she said, "Great, we can demonstrate that our method really ...

Hi folks, welcome, Aging can be a bummer, but there are some advantages, such as the National Parks Senior Pass. It costs $10, but it lasts for life (so stay in shape for full value). I got mine a few years ago, and the parks staff are always welcoming and friendly, explaining all the great benefits of your card. Including the fact that everyone in your vehicle can come in for free, too. You also get to park ... Read more
“The Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself”: FDR’s First Inaugural Address" History Matters. Hi folks, welcome! I'm scared of heights and poverty, I don't seem to be anxious about aging or dying, particularly, but I am frightened of not living my life to the full, which can be a living death and a terrible waste. From time to time I reflect on the role that fear plays in my life, and Brian Germain's ... Read more
Hi folks, welcome! Just because you can't handle barefoot running, does not mean that you can't use it as a carefully titrated component of your arch (thus your running) training. I really don't like using arch supports for running, as I consider them to be a crutch, but it would appear, that for now at least, I'm forced to do so! Ever since my interest in barefoot running, and increasing the ... Read more
Hi folks, welcome to another lovely day! I consider philosophy, or thinking about thinking, to be the most important of all subjects. I love to enjoy my morning cups (2) of tea each morning, when I just sits and thinks, and sometimes just sits. I often wonder why I do what I do, like blogging, for instance, and then I remember, it's all explained in this little movie I had fun making today. Do we have free ... Read more
Hi folks, welcome! Everything you learn will come in useful one day, so learn lots of interesting things, which means explore your world. This has certainly helped me find interesting content for my style of blogging. But first, a general note on this blog: I was becoming disenchanted with my blog the other day. The muses were absent and traffic continued to be too flat. So I posed a question, concerning ... Read more
Hi folks, welcome! Setting up a business isn't only about designing products, such as our plantar fasciitis treatment, to make money, it's really about making a difference, but you do need some money to keep making a difference. When I was growing up, or becoming conscious (not conscious in the way Eckhart Tolle means, as that came much later), our mother professed to be a Jehovah's Witness. I remember her ... Read more
Hi folks, welcome! I decided to bring your attention to one of my most dedicated followers, mentors, and guides, Marsha, who loves lost animals and history, and authors an excellent blog, "Just Live Your Own Life." What I find most alluring about Marsha's writing is that it calms me down. I'm not naturally a nervous person, but I am a bit driven, or even OCD. In spite of my daily meditation, I can still become ... Read more
