Everyday

I once thought everyday athlete was a cool title for a project. But it wasn’t. The people it was aimed at helping thought it made them sound bland.

Everyday value, suggests it won’t cost you much but that’s ok because you are not expecting much.

Everyday is bland, monotonous, and not much fun.

I write every day and someday I don’t think I can do it.

The kids ride to school every day, it rains, often it’s dark, and too many motorists are inconsiderate and mean.

Yet, every day, we can, if we choose to see it, consider the payoff and its value.

Active, resilient kids.

A body of work.

And sometimes, every day, not every other Tuesday or when you feel like it, is extraordinary.

Thank you to Lily, Sara, and Dyfydd from the BBC. We had a lot of fun filming our family bike story in the sun yesterday.
