- Len, his thoughts & the things he does -

I went to the park this morning.  I did a 5k and hit the starbucks in my neighborhood afterwards  just doesn’t seem like I would need coffee after doing that at the park, but i guess it’s more ritual than needed.  something about sitting outside in watching the first morning rays of the day without a hot cup of cup of something in my hand, doesn’t seem completely correct.

I’m really grateful that i can get back outside and active again so soon after my surgery 2 weeks ago.  you really don’t know how good a thing is until you have it taken away from you.  even in my case which was just momentary, i was dumstruck how much i was imobilized by my lower abdominals for the most miniscual of things; coughing, sneezing, laughing out loud and other things just seems so much of a discomfort. I will not take my health for granted, well at least for a long long time.  just kidding, I understand how truly important it is to maintain one’s health.

I am starting up my gym time again.  I will be starting with some light circut  training and work my way back to strength training.  it’s important that i gradualy pick up where i left off before Christmas. I have a long road ahead, but i eagerly desire to get back on the path.  this surgery was just the thing i needed to kick my ass and realize what i have been missing.

I hope this little post finds everyone in good health and having a wonderful day! take advantage of your day and make it a better one than yesterday
