It's Christmas and spending time with friends and family is important. We never know how many more days we have with the ones we love. Socializing is important in maintaining our sanity and in keeping depression at bay. It's up to each of us to take good enough care of ourselves to maintain a certain degree of fitness, so that we can keep coming together year after year. And the weather here in Pennsylvania has certainly been doing its part to allow us to get out and maintain healthy habits. Yesterday I was up at Nay Aug Park doing my little circle. After doing about a 1 mile warm up I went to a little picnic grove that is there. There's about an 1/8 loop with tables. I run one loop, then do push-ups, then another loop. After a few loops I have also done crunches, jumping jacks, dips, and few other calisthenics. When it's all done, I do a few wind sprints followed by a mile or so cool down. It was about 70 degrees yesterday, and that helped motivate me through the run. No white Christmas this year, and I'm good with that. Hopefully everyone is having a fit and fun, family day. And hopefully, everyone is being active enough to stay physically, emotionally, and cognitively fit.
The sun is out: let's enjoy the "Bright Christmas."
