I'm inspired.
This weekend, I took the family to Ft Washington Park. First, I played 4 on 4 basketball with some younger guys. I've still got game, but man I was tired halfway through the first (and only, for me) game! I remember back in the day when I would shoot ball for hours and never be winded.
After a 15 minute rest, I went for a walk with my daughter along some trail. It was a very long walk which included multiple steep inclines. Just when I literally said, "I need to sit down", we came across a bench. I sat and rested for a bit and then continued. That walk was so exhilerating! It also showed me how out of shape I was. So, I told my daughter that, starting that day, I was going to start exercising regularly- daily, if possible. I kept the trend going yesterday by lifting weights with my son. I'm determined to keep it up this time. It's not even about weight-loss, per se, for me. It's more about being in better shape. Updates to follow.
