HIMALAYAN RUSH CALIBRATION BREAK: ANNOUNCEMENT

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky

We have some important news for 2019:

Having enjoyed the heck out of hosting The Himalayan Rush Triathlon for the last 7 Years, we get the sense it is time to Pause & Re-calibrate. Our love for the trails and the epic locations in Nepal hasn’t changed but our ideas for the race have evolved.

With that in mind, the HRUSH Team are taking a calibration break this year so no Himalayan Rush Triathlon in 2019!

A big thank you to all who have come over the years and been a source of inspiration, feedback and fun. We hope to see you again in a re-imagined Himalayan Rush race sometime in the near future! :)

In the meantime, add to our ideas- tell us what kind of race you’d love to see and do in Nepal and we’ll consider those too!

Much love and thanks,
The Himalayan Rush Team

“John Muir, Earth — planet, Universe"
[Muir's home address, as inscribed on the inside front cover of his first field journal]

May we all be more at home in the world- including the muddy, unpaved parts of the earth.

Loving Lyanda Lynn Haupt Crow Planet: Essential Wisdom from the Urban Wilderness:

“This is one of the blessings of the urban nature project: without the overtly magnificent to stop us in our tracks, we must seek out the more subversively magnificent. Our sense of what constitutes wildness is expanded, and our sense of wonder along with it.”

“With my new habit of carrying binoculars everywhere, I feel imbued with a readiness to see, an attitude that my life itself is a kind of field trip. The urban naturalist has the terrific luxury of stepping out her door and into "the field," without long rides or carpools, or putting money in for gas and Dairy Queen. When does the field trip being? Whenever we start paying attention.”

“I realize that in giving birth, managing a household, raising a child, and composting potato peels in a city, I have learned some things about wildness that even Thoreau could not have known.”

“None of your knowledge, your reading, your connections will be of any use here: two legs suffice, and big eyes to see with. Walk alone, across mountains or through forests. You are nobody to the hills or the thick boughs heavy with greenery. You are no longer a role, or a status, not even an individual, but a body, a body that feels sharp stones on the paths, the caress of long grass and the freshness of the wind. When you walk, the world has neither present nor future: nothing but the cycle of mornings and evenings. Always the same thing to do all day: walk. But the walker who marvels while walking (the blue of the rocks in a July evening light, the silvery green of olive leaves at noon, the violet morning hills) has no past, no plans, no experience. He has within him the eternal child. While walking I am but a simple gaze.”
― Frédéric Gros, A Philosophy of Walking

We sometimes break the rule about walking alone....we also (often) break that one about it being walking and not running ;) but we agree wholeheartedly that nature+movement is the best kind of weekend!

HAPPY SUNDAY
