Fitness

There are many definitions of fitness, and different strokes for different folks. I like:

Running. There’s nothing quite like it.

Hiking. My favorite way to relax (while still getting in a workout).

Yoga. I can never seem to practice frequently enough, but never regret fitting in a class or session at home.

Playing fetch with my dogs.

Group fitness classes, like: Les Mills Body Pump. An efficient full-body strength workout, set to guilty pleasure pop music? Yes, please.
