A Scientific 7-Minute Workout That Only Requires You, a Wall & a Chair

I guess I should maybe invest in a chair…

No excuses. Get active!

“Seriously what the hell just happened? It’s not often I don’t know what to say (as evidenced by the fact that I ramble on and on every week in this blog) but I’m really a loss for words right now. I’ve lost 100 pounds since I started this up. A hundred pounds. That’s like a thing that you see on TV, with celebrity trainers, fancy pants gyms, and dedicated dietitians. I’m just some dude who got sick and tired of being fat and has been changing the way I eat and got to running.”

— Andy Aubin

Did you know that allotting merely 10 minutes a day for a brisk walk can significantly improve your emotional state?

Taking part in regular physical activity can both increase self-esteem and reduce stress and anxiety, according to the report.

And it can act as both prevention and treatment for various mental illnesses including depression and anxiety.

We simply love excuses to go outside and log some Charity Miles.

(via Why the object of exercise is not just a physical one)

“Bad runs, injuries and other less than ideal happening will occur. It’s not a question of if, but when. But when they do happen, you have a choice in life. You can either dwell on it and let it consume you, or you can handle it with optimism, laughter, or whatever positive means necessary.”

Tori Irving not only runs for herself, she also runs to be a good example.

I run because I am a mom. By setting an example, she is learning. I am so proud of her. And at the end of a race, there isn’t anything better than hearing my daughter say, “Mama, I want to run with you!”

Let’s do some miles for our moms today!
