The Road Not Taken

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;        

 

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,        

 

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.        

 

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

Book Reviews: tandem journeys and ultra-runners

Book Reviews: tandem journeys and ultra-runners

Two books that combine travel and adventure from an active perspective – running or cycling – and on an ultra-big scale. How big? Well, we’re talking cycling from Alaska to the southern tip of Argentina, and running 100 miles for fun, through mountains and deserts, non-stop, with just a pair of sandals strapped to your feet.
