Favourite line might be re. getting folk together: ‘Be the leader, and you’ll feel the rush of energy of being in this heady position.’😁 I love these. How easily we can forget to play and really have fun with this one, wild and precious life. 🪄🤸🏼‍♀️

Oh man well I totally recommend, haha! But—as you noted, I agree the challenge doesn’t matter, the point is to make it be a challenge, which does great things for the brain and sense of self. I run distance—but I haven’t ridden a bike in years. Anyway, good post. Cheers!

'Being tested like this sharpens our wandering minds and strengthens us.'

Yeah, I agree with this point. Getting involved in such physical challenges does have the powerful effect of reinvigorating us and injecting us with much-needed energy.

Good points, Alex.
