Strange times, indeed. Have a great weekend!

Johnisfit.com, one of my favorite reads, is giving away a bike to some lucky winner. I wish everyone who enters the very best of luck and a reminder that I have a birthday coming up...

Ah! What is it about the open road that beckons me to saddle-up the ol' Schwinn and grunt down the driveway? Is it the wind in what's left of my hair, the bugs in my teeth, or the fact that each excursion becomes more kamikaze-like than the last?

I think it's the combination of two activities that represent both the old me and the new me; sitting and exercising. The old me did a lot of sitting but not a lot of exercising, while the new me strives for a life weighted more heavily in physical exertion. My alternate trips (run/ride) to the gym are a ridiculous trip down memory lane.

#26 - Ride A Bike

Hey, it's great exercise and a little easier on my old joints than running.

#27 - Walk This Way

And every which way. Walking is the premier low impact mildly aerobic exercise- and requires no special equipment.

#28 - Take The Stairs

There is something seriously wrong with taking the elevator to the food court on the second floor of our local shopping mall. I would never, ever, never do something so lazy- again.
