Go outside and play.
No, I’m not your mom
(unless T. and Syd are reading this…), but it’s still a good idea.
I love the gym. I love weights and cardio machines and
classes and handy showers and often I even love the cheesy music. But.
Outside is better. The view from the treadmill doesn’t change
much, but a walk or run out in the world can change our perspective.
It can also be a reality
check. No matter how much we vary the
intensity or incline or speed on a cardio machine, it’s not the same as
tackling real hills or dealing with different surfaces. We don’t work out to get better at working
out. We do it to get better at the stuff
we actually want to do.
So get out. Feel the sun and the breeze. Breathe a while.
