Do you remember on Sesame Street when they would have that little game, Which One Is Different Than the Other? I experienced that last night, and it wasn’t pleasant. It was kind of an icky realization. The gym where I workout isn’t quite your typical gym. It’s actually a Parkour gym that started out mainly for kids. Now they offer a lot of different classes though, including body weight exercises and stretching classes for adults. Although, after my realization, I would use the word adult loosely. I noticed that some classes are mainly twenty year olds, while others are thirty-five and over. I found myself in the younger of the classes and last night I felt it. It wasn’t until the second set of exercises that I began to really feel my age. I looked around hoping to see people suffering with me and just saw youngsters flying through the rounds. I tried to take solace in the fact that I have been slow all my life and it wasn’t an age thing, but the fact that most of them were still on their first car was the cold hard truth. This morning I am not too sore, but we shall see what this body says tomorrow.

Into the North Wind: A thousand-mile bicycle adventure across frozen Alaska
by Jill Homer
(36 Reviews)
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs | Travel
FREE for a limited time
“Into the North Wind” chronicles Jill Homer’s record-breaking bicycle ride across Alaska on the Iditarod Trail. Jill is one of those “accidental athletes” who stumbled into endurance racing shortly after she moved to Alaska in 2005. After a hundred miles, her first race only scratched the surface of the historic trail that spans a vast and frozen wilderness. Ever since, she dreamed about the chiming of ice crystals at thirty below zero, black spruce shadows in the moonlight, the ethereal dance of the Northern Lights, and a journey that could take her deeper into this transcendental world — the thousand-mile race to Nome.
After ten years of dreaming, she finally made the leap in 2016. Fitness, however, remained elusive as ambitious preparations left a wake of failures, sickness and injury. Even the existence of the trail remained in question — throughout the winter, Alaska experienced unprecedented heat waves and snow melt that threatened to render the Iditarod Trail impassable. By the time Jill lined up at the start, she was ready to chuck her dream into the barely-frozen lake.
Instead, she pedaled across waterlogged ice, repeating her mantra of “one day at a time.” This account is not just a story about seeking beauty, overcoming setbacks and uncovering hidden strength — it’s a journey into the benevolent heart of the coldest, loneliest trail.
