We went for a vacation day in Atlantic City, NJ this weekend. We got there on Friday night. Once we checked in, we went for a walk. About a mile away is the Irish Pub. There we had a couple of beers and some dinner. I had the fish and chips. I know that deep fried foods are not the best for you, but anything in moderation. Plus, I read somewhere that if you eat seafood once a week, it reduces your chances of a stroke by approximately 60%.
I do try to eat tuna or some fish at least once a week. Too much seafood can actually lead to mercury poisoning, depending on where they catch what you eat. So, we had our beers and I had my fish, threw back a shot of Tullamore Dew (it was, after all, an Irish pub), then a stroll back to the casino.
What does all this have to do with fitness? Not much, unless you think that everyone is fit enough to walk a couple of miles (plus at least a mile within the casino). They are not. This blog is not about getting as fit as a marathon runner. This blog is about being fit enough to leave your house. It is about being fit enough to walk to a bar. It is about being fit enough to walk along the beach on a breezy morning with a cup of coffee in one hand, and a beautiful woman in the other. This blog is about being fit enough to enjoy life. I am and I do.
Be active, be happy, play
