never give up...


This Japanese proverb is literally & really resonating with me right now. Not too distant are the memories of falling down the mountain at the weekend. & in the foreseeable future I will be on the Alpines probably doing much of the same slipping up & smashing my legs up. I have a long way to go to overcome my fears of falling, an 100 mile ultra marathon perhaps.

But this is also rocking my living, my day to day reality. When I find it hard to stand tall, be strong, have willpower, give good energy out, get out of bed even, one must never quit. & these words kinda guide me to keep trying. Keep positive. & make good things happen with perseverance. & the good times will roll in. Never give up on dreams, life, love.... 

& well, I'm off to Japan in 2 weeks. a) to see my family & b) to race & hopefully beat my lil brother in a trail run in Kyoto. I know very little about the course except the distance is around 36k & I can't wait for new views & paths of the mountains of the region to acquaint myself with. & I'll have my nephews (ages 2 & 4) for support crew. I am getting super excited for this one...
