I know – go figure!
I’m so busy living life I have no time to “exercise”.
Between the endless golf games, hours spent kayaking, hiking and biking I can’t find a spare minute.
I’d go at lunch but I’m too busy enjoying my walks to fit in anything else.
It’s like my lighter, fitter body is a new toy and all I want to do is play.
And hey, I’m on the prairies, that means winter is just around the corner, so I’m going to soak up the sun whenever I can.
And yes…… once the days get shorter and colder I'll try to fit in “regular” exercising ….. rowing machine, bike trainer, resistance bands. Oh wait….. there’s still snowshoeing…lol.
This was partially meant to be tongue in cheek and I hope it is taken that way.
But I also wanted to let those who are starting their journey know that "exercise" comes in all shapes and forms and sometimes just living life is the best workout of all.
I spent a good portion of my life watching and wishing…… if only I could have those years back.
To quote Oprah…… “The greatest adventure you can have in life is to live your dreams”.
May you all live yours!
