Yay - four hundred!

Another "mile"stone. My 400th consecutive day of running at least a mile.

It feels good!

It was quite an early one this morning as I had a business networking breakfast, so I was back in the house by 6.00am.

It's always great (well, nearly) to get a head start on the day!

I had coffee with a friend and a business contact who has been very helpful to me over the years. He was telling me about a networking training session he attended yesterday, where the presenter's first words were, "Do you brighten the room when you enter it or when you leave it?"

I really like that line.

It illustrates nicely how we do infect others with our energy, whether it is positive or negative, when we walk into a room or even when we talk on the telephone.

My energy is pretty good today so I hope to be brightening the spaces around me, at least for today.

1st day of 4th month

OK. This feels like a milestone.

Today was my first run of my fourth month of running a mile each day, so if a mile each day was a business I would have achieved my target for Q1 of 2010. After tomorrow I will have completed over a quarter of the days in the year. I had never really worked out before that the 4 quarters of the year have 90, 91, 92 and 92 days respectively (assuming it's not a leap year).

A beautiful, if cold, morning and I really enjoyed the respite from the fairly constant rain of recent days.

I'm looking forward to a fun, family-oriented Easter and birthday weekend.
