Pedal Anyway

The weather today provided little inspiration to ride but excuses like the weather provide little comfort and absolutely no reward. So Pedal Anyway became the motto for today's ride. Some times when we least feel like working out we have the best workouts. It is almost always the steps we have to take to get us to the gym, on the bike, in the pool, on the field, or on the mats that stop us from doing what we know we should do. The decision to get going is the hardest one to make and enforce upon ourselves. Once you are at the gym, on the bike, etc. it gets easier by far. This is a scientific fact, really I mean it. Okay maybe not pure science but a darn good theory to say the least. One thing for sure everybody in the fitness industry is full throttle now that the new year is upon us. Many folks have made that all important decision to get going and get healthier. You can do it. Don't let the weather and other such excuses rob you of your reward. So burn those calories, build the muscles, run that race, and take a friend along with you because victory loves company. Maybe we should start a new holiday that provides hope and motivation to the masses, I know what we could call it ,"Today". Pedal On !
