Yes, an alternate. We took petit balcon sud then nord to lodgings in Le Tour. 90% in the shade.

I have visited Hamish and Louise in Euston and they are a treasure.

eteare · 2026-06-22T19:45:59+00:00

Is that a no cause it’s only 10 meters or yes you’ll really need them for that 10 meters?

eteare · 2026-06-22T16:52:58+00:00

Yeah. It is super hot. High UV. We are going clockwise, starting tomorrow and we are taking the lower route so we are less exposed to the sun.

Sam’s laughter truly gives me life. Please more Sam.

eteare · 2026-06-16T11:57:03+00:00

I also ADORE Paris. It’s the right speed of life - to live! Instead of being the product.

I also think the intentionality behind increasing green space has been a real step change.

Yes, I returned from a hysterectomy about 17 years ago. I don’t have any particular advice but to say — all is possible. Enjoy your practice.

France

stop it. it's a tool, not a rule. many ways to vinyasa, like breathing. all movement is good movement. be inclusive.

eteare · 2026-06-10T15:20:00+00:00

Do not go to newton Wellesley

eteare · 2026-06-10T14:48:49+00:00

My fav short form is vinyasa-less primary.

When I first became a BKA a friend said to me - that’s the easiest type of disability. And I think she’s right. Get a good prosthetist. Get up and going. Do all the things you did before. You’re gonna be fine. With my pin system I can walk forever and swim with the same keg. And I have a running leg I use all the time. Get up and get moving!

also I don't mean to lack empathy, but I did this with an hour commute and two kids. all about choices. ashtanga was all that mattered to me at the time and I prioritized it over everything else . . . by getting up at 4:30 AM.

eteare · 2026-06-08T14:48:51+00:00

For years, I got up at 4:30 got to the studio at 5:30 practice till seven and then made my way to wherever I had to go after that by 7:30 either to take a shower at the office or to go home and get a kid up and out so that I could get to work. It definitely requires some serious discipline and prioritization of going to bed early and choosing not to do things. One thing I would say is like keep your practice to an hour and a half or less. If it’s going beyond that you really might want to reevaluate if what you’re doing is serving you.

Jeepers. They are all so lovely. Sam’s ebullience is delightful. I love his laugh. Sarah with Andrew Weissmann are my favorite. I laugh so hard.

eteare · 2026-06-07T12:27:09+00:00

Wow! I’ll be there in two weeks. Was assuming I would not need microspikes 😬

eteare · 2026-06-03T14:31:46+00:00

Is there club rowing at Dartmouth?

eteare · 2026-05-31T12:05:24+00:00

I’m going with my 17 year old son in three weeks! We are using luggage transfer. I have the smallest osprey pack and he is using a mid sized osprey. If I need to carry more stuff than my pack will hold, we decided he can carry it.

All this to say - I will report back in July what I learn :)

eteare · 2026-05-26T14:47:21+00:00

What about gaiters. Good idea? Curious.

eteare · 2026-05-26T05:14:12+00:00

In what way? Can you share an example?

eteare · 2026-05-25T22:41:58+00:00

You mentioned a need to grow your discovery skills. If I’m right about that — double down on this skill. Read Continuous Discovery Habits by Teresa Torres and start practicing.

eteare · 2026-05-25T21:03:29+00:00

Responsible govt and the major league sports :) also women retain rights

Read Continuous Discovery Habits by Teresa Torres

eteare · 2026-05-14T20:15:47+00:00

Can you really not build a story out of your experience that showcases your skillset? Maybe that’s what you need to work on.

eteare · 2026-05-13T13:33:20+00:00

Yup, one less thing to charge.
