Go, YOU!!!<br /><br />Me? I'm training for old age, LOL! And you've given me the best idea... my balance has been poor all of my life (and I do seriously worry about what I will do as I get older), and since I fell skating, I've really struggled to figure out how to really strengthen my core (body in general) functionally! THIS is the solution! I can now think of several motions I can mimmick on that balance board, and I can once again see myself on skates. WHOO HOO!<br /><br />I can't wait to see you ever so gracefully glide down that river!ramonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04266437063946876795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-5740682739028173322012-06-20T15:56:33.684-04:002012-06-20T15:56:33.684-04:00Wow, training a year in advance?

You are smart to TRAIN before you attempt stand up paddle boarding in Hawaii next time you go. I'm assuming that's what you're talking about training for. Heck...for all I know...maybe you can do that paddle boarding where you live?<br /><br />I know when I had my picture taken for the Taste of Home cookbook last June, I was motivated to make sure I kept the weight off in the 6-month period of time before the cookbook was published in late December. I did NOT want people looking at those pictures and saying (behind my back), "Gosh, she's gained a lot of weight!" Motivation manifests itself in all kinds of ways, and you gotta take it however it comes. For you and me...we know this is long term. We are in this new healthy living lifestyle for the rest of our lives, and have to make sure to stay motivated. It is definitely an on-going challenge.dupsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088114640385927198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-65046350939828904102012-06-19T11:08:18.198-04:002012-06-19T11:08:18.198-04:00I'm not exactly in training for it, but I have...I'm not exactly in training for it, but I have a goal to hike to the top of Mt. Olympus in Salt Lake City with my son. It's short in terms of distance, but a steep climb with an elevation gain of 4200 feet over 3.5 miles. Last time I hiked above 8500 feet, I got altitude sickness and couldn't eat, so I keep wanting to hike higher and higher trails to acclimate--but my hiking buddy moved, so I'm not getting it done. <br /><br />Also looking forward to trying my hand(s) on the climbing wall at a local rec center--my son also told me he'd teach me bouldering if I want. I'm trying to recapture my distant youth, lol.Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16296750630075402269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-30260566535917288772012-06-19T10:46:21.531-04:002012-06-19T10:46:21.531-04:00I live on a channel of a river and I saw people wi...I live on a channel of a river and I saw people with those paddle boards - it looked like so much fun!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-50126257541409568002012-06-19T10:05:45.483-04:002012-06-19T10:05:45.483-04:00Very Cool!
