Happy Leap Day

Hard to believe that it’s been a full four years since my last leaper post, but it’s true!

For your leapin’ amusement, here's my full 2020 Leap Year photo gallery: https://northeastracephoto.smugmug.com/2020-Races/Leapers-2

“When in doubt, make a fool of yourself. There is a microscopically thin line between being brilliantly creative and acting like the most gigantic idiot on earth. So what the hell, leap.”
— Cynthia Heimel







  


the joy of the leap

“Enthusiasm is the leaping lightning, not to be measured by the horse-power of the understanding.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Athletes have studied how to leap and how to survive the leap some of the time and return to the ground. They don't always do it well. But they are our philosophers of actual moments and the body and soul in them, and of our maneuvers in our emergencies and longings.”
— Harold Brodkey
