Time to get moving

I’ve never been the athletic type. I clearly remember the trauma and shame of being the last, or near to the last one picked for teams. I wasn’t particularly skillful. I also remember the freedom of riding my bike with the wind blowing in my face. Riding not to end up at a destination but simply because riding was fun. And I remember running — not very fast, but I could run far. In college I jogged for fun, just because.

Then I became an adult, got married, had babies and became an overweight sloth.

It’s time for me to re-learn the joy of physical activity.
