i blow a tire at Oraibi 8k...


To work with changes now, in life: That is the real way to prepare for death. Life may be full of pain, suffering, and difficulty, but all of these are opportunities handed to us to help us move toward an emotional acceptance of death. It is only when we believe things to be permanent that we shut off the possibility of learning from change.
- Sogyal Rinpoche



How ironic is that? A yoga teacher pulls a hamstring during the first k of an 8k traditional Hopi Footrace in America's continuously inhabited village...did i finish?
what techniques did i engage if i did? how did i fare as one of the few 'panaah' or "white man" among a huge, olympic-status field of Hopi Runner on their own turf?
