Exercise

[Guest guest]

~Hello Everyone~

I haven't checked this site for a while, but now I'm glad I did

again! I thought I would share some things with you.

It's funny that all of you were mentioning exercising. I'm proud

to say I've been very active lately. For the past three weeks I've

been doing lots of working out. I'm one of the fortunate few; right

next to my house there is a 90-acre park with a bike path completely

around it (the bike path is a circular 1.5 miles long and flat might

I add). Also, one of the things my parents thought was beneficial to

get was a gym, so I have easy access to all sorts of workouts. For

this I am eternally grateful, never would I have started working out

if this were not the case.

I take a bike ride every morning at about 5-6:00 am and go around

the park twice, and no need to be all shocked, I go right back to

sleep when I get home and don't wake up until at least another five

hours. I go for another bike ride later in the day, but I only go

around the park once this time. Come home then, run as long as I can

on the treadmill (currently a whopping five minutes!). I can never

run for very long because I concentrate as hard as I can to run

correctly. Hence, just five minutes tires me plenty. After that I

just do some weight training. Take out my anger on a punching bag.

That's about it. I'm pretty lucky too cause I'm still a child and

have no worries about work or having to do much else. I'm sure for

adults all this time would be much more difficult to have.

The thing is though, after being weak for as long as I can

remember, I'm getting into shape. My pain is decreasing, my balance

improving. Also, taking a little weight off joints is always good.

At this rate, perhaps someday I'll be capable of operating somewhat

normally ) Hey...I can still dream...
