To be or to do

From RoadBikeRider.com free e-newsletter:

"I have a very busy life, filled with a combination of things I want to do and things I have to do. There is peacefulness in focusing on just one thing, like a mantra or meditation. In these long events, there are stretches of time that can be very relaxing and I feel I am more of a human 'being' and less of a human 'doing.' That is, of course, until it gets that little bit harder and the discomfort takes all the fun out of it."

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
