I don't like to exercise. I do it. I feel better afterwards. I kind of look forward to it up until it's time to start. Actually I'm like oh look...laundry, needs to be done before I exercise. I know I'm kidding myself.
The leading cause of death is heart disease. My dad was dx with CHF on his deathbed that he wasn't aware of prior. I want to be around for my kids. I hate taking time away from them to say "mommy has to exercise". And don't get me wrong, I don't even exercise daily if I have physically challenging chores to do. However I hope I'm instilling in them the desire for good health and also prolonging my life so I can be with them longer in this world. Tonight I traced the kids feet on my treadmill to remind me that I run not for myself, not for others, but for my family.
