Today, it would be simple. Let’s get some miles with minimal navigation credentials required. Gamecock was surprised by his son Yellow Star that was in town for fall break and it was a heart warming moment. YHC gave the disclaimer and we were off.

Run Down Arlington as far as you can for 22 Minutes and turn around and run back.

Strokes, String, and I found ourselves in each other’s company while running Arlington Blvd. We were talking about the difference between Critter Mode and the Smart Brain. When we take care of ourselves, practice spiritual principles, and remain present we are able to think with our Smart Brain, where rational thinking and collaboration lead to optimal solutions. When we don’t take care of ourselves and we are not self aware, we tend to stay in critter mode, in which we make decisions with our reptilian and mammalian brains based on fight or flight, and emotions. The more self awareness and acceptance we gain the more able we are to access our Rational capabilities and better decisions are made. So stay out of critter mode and use that neocortex that you were given. ….The Things we talk about when we are sucking wind.
