Never Quit !

The road to fitness and health is a life long road. We are constantly trying to keep death at a respectable distance. Do the best that you can with what you have. We are different shapes and sizes but we can get into better conditioning. Remember the story of the Covered Wagon crossing the plains toward the Golden West?-

"The Coward never started,
The Weak died on the way,
Only the strong came through!"

Running On The Beach

I'm at Myrtle Beach for a Leadership Summit. I'm excited about running on the beach in the morning. It is one of my favorite places to run. I get to listen to the waves tonight as I sleep.
Running on the sand takes a little more effort but I love the way it makes me feel.

Fitness For The Traveler

Staying fit or getting into shape isn't easy if you travel for a living. Being creative and having a dogged determination will give you an advantage. "Remember that fat doesn't take a holiday."
Here are a few suggestions for you to consider. Pack your workout clothes and a jump rope.
If your Hotel doesn't have a fitness center walk up and down the stairs or go outside and jump rope. It is not always safe to run or walk where you aren't familiar. Jogging in place, jumping jacks, push ups, sit ups and other exercises can be done in your room. No more excuses!

Running On A Cold Day

A client and I ran at 7:00 this morning. It was 19* the real feel was 7* with 10 mph wind gust!
To handle the cold I wore two pair of gloves, socks and Nike Pro layered upper and lower wear... We ran five miles and all is well! Preparation is the key!
