Yesterday, I went to Coca-Cola Park Stadium to run in the Bacon 5k Challenge at the home of the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs. Some people were taking part in the "challenger" part of the race where you run half way, eat half of a pound of bacon, then run the other half. I chose not to do that. I did enjoy running around the outside of the stadium and then back through the infield to the finish line. My wife came with me for moral support.
After the 5k, we the went to the Easton Farmers' Market and the River Fest taking place where the Lehigh River meets the Delaware River. We drank some beer, ate some brisket and beans, and had a nice day. We bought some vegetables and fruit and ate some ice cream at Dairy Queen.
My wife and I have been watching what we eat and I try to exercise every day. She has increased her walking. The key to being happy, though, is balance. In life it is balance on the inside as well as the outside. Balance with work and home. Balance with keeping healthy, exercise and enjoying life. If you eat well during the week, you can have extra things on the weekend. If you exercise you can keep flexible enough to enjoy your time off. Maintaining balance with your diet and with your daily exercise routine is a good thing. Taking time to do the things you love and eat some different things is even better.
Maintain balance for a happy life...
