Staying in shape

Bobby | October 4, 2008

So over the last couple years I know I’ve not stayed as fit as I have in the past.  I guess I just kinda thought, “eh, I’m not overweight so it’s ok.”.  But I realized it’s not just about being a certain weight, it’s about being healthy and feeling good.

Shellie has been running about 3 miles almost every morning and decided to do a 5K run this weekend.  She even created a Google Map of her daily run.  So I told myself, “Hey, this is a great oppourtunity to buy a cool Gadget!!”  (I know it doen’t make sense, but hey… I’m using Technology!”)  I got a new pair of Nike running shoes and the Nike+ iPod adapter to track my runs.  I have to say, I think it’s more encouragement to run than I thought it would be.  Nike has an awesome site where you can upload/share and track your running… set goals for faster times, train for a marathon and other things like that.  This all got me thinking, “Hey, I have friends that have done triathalons and marathons, maybe I should try to do one next year.”.  Well… I don’t want to get ahead of myself now… so let’s see how this 5K tomorrow goes.

Wish me luck!
