Day 1018- Today's sniffles are no match for today's burning desire!

With a good nineteen hours of rest in between workouts, we pound a 1248 calorie burn in sixty minutes. What ever I seem to have seems to be breaking up and clearing up.

A special call of recognition must go out to a special person who as of Saturday (Day 1016) was on day 12 of her own workout streak! God bless you, pretty lady! Keep it going!

The weather outside is getting chilly and the heat is cranking as the 2010 holiday season is firmly upon us. Christmas carols and songs are in full bloom. People are being told it is okay to over indulge a little after all it is the holidays.

Well? What about you are you getting caught up in the season.Are you already over indulging a bit. Is candy canes and Christmas candies being offered and accepted by you? Are you of the mindset of oh well, it is just once a year? Does this thought swim through your head as you bake and consume cookies and other holiday treats?

Where is this guy going with this line of questioning? The answer is an obvious yes. Most people do not say the holidays great I might get a few extra hours to workout. Or the holidays? Wow, an awesome time promote the cause of healthy eating and working out every day.

No, the holidays are not generally reserved to promote good health and good eating. It is ironic we wish everyone good health and happiness then we offer them foods that are not healthy. We give the hope of a happiness in their future but yet are actions of offering them good cheer and holiday food do just the opposite.

Maybe it is just me standing up on my soap box and trying to draw attention to a cause for great fitness and great health.

Either way, pardon the interruption and allow me to let get back to enjoying the holiday season.
