When I was 19 I was hit with the mononucleosis virus. It took me down for months! I had to drop college courses and was bedridden for some time. Ever since, I've had to work extra hard to have a strong healthy immune system.
It wasn't until about 10 years ago, did I begin to realize what I thought I was doing to be healthy wasn't as healthy as I thought. Here's what I've learned along the way.
I get bored with conventional exercises. We can keep working out longer if we enjoy what we're doing! For me, the key is adventure. I started with short hikes in pretty places with lots to see. Then I began mountain biking, yoga and Barre3. What's something you love that gets you moving?
The gym is a place where I get ready for adventures. My eye is not on the elliptical; it is on the mountains I will climb and the rivers I will ride. My hope is that in sharing my adventures with you, I will inspire you to find your own adventures. Let's share the stories of the exciting places that our healthier bodies can take us.
