(incredible photo by the amazing Evan Fedorko!) I have been helping to coach my son's mountain bike team. The Morgantown Trail Hawks are part of the National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA for short). I love the emphasis on getting more kids outside and active, regardless of their skill level. We have some super competive kids who will likely be on the world stage in just a few years. Most of the kids in the group I work with are more concerned with having fun than winning medals. Riding with these kids in the Party Pace Group a few days each week, reminds me about why I do some of the things that I do day in and day out. I am able to just pick up and go for a 14 mile rail trail ride partially because of my regular running routine that I have had for years now. I can power up some of the rocky, rooty hills at Coopers Rock in part because of the squats that I do in my strength training. I can feel confident in my bike shorts becuase of the health choices that I make. I want to be the 75-year-old grandma biking in the mountains with my grandkids. That dream starts long before I reach the age of 75 ... I have to train for it now! What motivates you to make your health choices? What do you want to be able to do now and 30 years from now? Maybe for you it is travel. Maybe it is missions work. Maybe it is playing with the little kids God puts in your life at that time. In my private coaching practice, I work with busy women who do ALL.THE.THINGS ... but then end up feeling used up and exhausted by dinnertime. They want to have the energy after the have-to-dos to actually enjoy and be present for their people and to pursue their passions ... long into their later years. If that sounds like you, click on the button below to schedule a complimentary 15 min Strategy Session and we can work together to develop new healthy self-care habits so that you are having fun being active with your favorite people now and years from now!
