Dang, why can't we just get motivated and stay that way? Some weeks I will plan all my goals and then am disappointed if I only meet 90% of them. Maybe I try to do too much? Don't we all. I think it would be nice to not try so hard with this exercise stuff, and then remind myself I want to be healthy as I get older. Not just for me but, for my family and friends. I know that extra weight or high blood pressure or cholesterol don't matter so much now but, I see older family members and realize that they have a heavy price. One of the things I love about going to these races and biking and running groups, is that I see healthy older people who are vibrant and alive. That is what I want to be. The other benefit of lifelong fitness seems to be better mental health. Older people that take care of themselves seem to handle life's stresses better and are more stable. All for now.
Here is a list of this weekend's fun:
Saturday 7 mile run with friends
100 crunches
200 squats- This is my #1 most important thing to do.
bench presses
Sunday-bike ride
Here is a pic of Charlene and I at the Roller Derby Saturday night.
