You may want to reconsider sleeping in. Black Diamond presents ‘Why We Rise,’ a video that shows us what can be accomplished when we rise well before the crack of dawn.
Before you have even had that first cup of coffee, Black Diamond athletes Alex Lowe and Andrew McLean have already completed their objectives on the slope. And then they head in to work.
In this inspiring narrative, you’ll hear from Lowe and McLean, who borrowed the term “Dawn Patrol” from the military. They share how a potentially bad idea turned into a ritual that provided them with an entirely new way to explore.
McLean said, “It wasn’t really like a sense of pioneering. It was more just this great resource of unskied stuff. Dude, there’s nobody out here.”
So, next time you’re dreaming for more hours in the day to accomplish your objectives, wake up, sleepyheads. As the video stated, “There is something to be said for having a little extra daylight to burn.”
