50km run in the desert goes a long way for the soul

Just finished running my first ever in person event (literally and figuratively). 12 of us ran 155km through the Egyptian desert over 4 days. Magical experience traversing through an alien landscape. This is just the beginning

Instructions Before Visiting Earth: In the event that you wake up and find your soul separated from source and manifest into material form, don’t panic. Your condition is only temporary. You have been selected for the opportunity of human incarnation. This 3D simulation is designed to break up the monotony of eternity by giving you a fully immersive experience as a distinct ego identity. Your body will serve as your physical avatar as you navigate a dense and dramatic reality. There will be many distractions causing you to forget your true nature and origin. You will experience a range of emotions from joy to loneliness to despair. But remember – no matter what trials and traumas you encounter, your soul remains perfectly safe. At times you may feel lost or afraid. This is totally normal. If you ever need guidance, simply slow down your busy mind and bring your awareness to the quiet place inside yourself. On this planet, nothing is permanent. People and things will come and go. You will fall in love and form sentimental attachments only to lose everything you hold dear. So cling to nothing too tightly, even yourself, and when it’s time to let go, let go with grace, for nothing is owned, only borrowed. As you walk among the people on the planet, try to be a good guest. Tread lightly. Remember that you are only visiting. Don’t make a mess. Listen more than you speak. Give more than you take. Don’t keep your soft heart locked inside a glass cage, protected from wear and tear. You’ll never make it out alive and time passes quickly. So come back with some battle scars and good stories to tell. — James McCrae

Where have the fit and healthy folk gone on #nostr ?? SHOW YOURSELVES

True story

Go hit the waterfall with your mates

Simplify nutrition. Today’s lunch: grass fed steak, bone marrow, red rice, mashed potato, beef liver

Operation health & vitality continues. How’s yours going?

Classical music and pistons is all you need sometimes

You’re the average of the five people you spend most time with so make damn sure who those people are

Embrace the cringe, and discomfort

No one cares what you eat, but you should

Back to basics

You can just wake up one day and decide to go on a long run:

Find friends that do this at the beach

We can tap into it at anytime

- “Who’s the God?” - “You are.”

Most people think ultras are about learning to suffer harder. They’re not. They’re about learning when to soften. When to slow down. When to stop fighting the day and start listening to it. Walking isn’t failure. It’s the moment the nervous system settles and the path opens again. Master walking, and distance stops feeling hostile and out of reach.

Spiritual quests in Egypts White Desert

Some experiences don’t shout. They whisper — and change you anyway. Four days moving through an ancient landscape. At your pace. With full support. The desert strips things back until what’s left is usable. People don’t come home talking about kilometres. They come home more grounded. That’s the point. White Desert Ultra. Last 5 spots.
