[BIT] Update: July 2010

August 8, 2010 By Joel Runyon 11 Comments

The July Edition of BIT updates is coming a little late. I'm sorry. I like to do these right at the end of the month, but I got caught up with my last minute triathlon. Either way, here it is. Better late than never. Blogging Looking Back In case you missed it, in the last month here at BIT we talked about how to really celebrate your freedom, and my new-found productivity thanks to waking up early. I solicited your opinions on the world cup outcome ...

Last Minute Impossible Plans

July 30, 2010 By Joel Runyon 26 Comments

It seems I couldn’t get enough of my first triathlon experience so yesterday I signed up for another one…this weekend. I’ll be running obliterating [my new word for finishing triathlons - thanks twitter-verse] the Indy Tri this Sunday downtown. It’s an official USAT event and it's listed as a Sprint triathlon. The distances? All over the place again – 500m swim 11.5 miles 3.1 mile run I’ve got to admit, I’m terribly confused on what qualifies as a ...

Who’s Got 2 Thumbs And Just Did A Triathlon? – Valpo Tri 2010

July 19, 2010 By Joel Runyon 32 Comments

This guy. After 400m swimming, 12.4 miles biking and 3.2 miles running, I'm alive and I'm proud to say I finished! I'm pumped that I did it, but not so pumped about my time. My goal for the race, was 1 hour 15 minutes. I actually thought that that was a realistic time for what I wanted to do. In reality? I wasn't even CLOSE. As it turns out I made quite a few miscalculations...let me explain... The Race The 20-29 male age division was the first wave to ...

Surrounding Yourself

June 23, 2010 By Joel Runyon 31 Comments

If you're going to get good at anything you have to surround yourself with people who are better than you, people who believe in you and people who challenge you. The more you do that. The faster you do that. The faster you improve. *** If you surround yourself with people who have no goals lack motivation show no discipline and have no higher arcing purpose for what they're doing, Chances are, you'll end up wandering without ...

[Update June 25th] Jesse gives a sweet case study on how he shot the Race Across America over on his blog & portfolio site: JesseOxford.com.

Spontaneous Roadtripping

June 16, 2010 By Joel Runyon 4 Comments

Ashley deciding how fast she's going to run across the canyon //impossible//

Every once in a while I'll do something completely random at last minute notice. Three years ago I booked a ticket to Paris for 5 days, 24 hours before we left. Last summer I went to Jamaica for a month on 2 weeks notice. This past March on 24 hours notice, I went to Maui for Perry Marshall's exclusive internet marketing seminar. I LOVE these trips and for some strange reason, they keep happening... Last night I got a call from my good friend Jesse ...
