I’ve made fitness my lifestyle since I was 15. My passion/reasons for staying committed have changed over the years. It started with personal health and strength goals for athletics. To now being almost 50 and truly wanting people to see, hopefully by my example, that they can absolutely lead healthy and active lives. To let them know they can take their health into their own hands, and age is not an excuse or obstacle. Even if I can convince someone to walk for 15 minutes a day, it’s a win. ✌🏼

I personally prefer ANY way to train. Mainly in the gym, but I’m just as inclined to throw on a backpack and go for a 10 mile hike, or jump on the mountain bike and just start pedaling! I also enjoy the scientific side of exercise, and try to pass on that info to anyone that will listen!

Originally, I wrote that it would mostly go towards my kids college tuition, and maybe pay some debt off. But the real prize is the article in the Magazine. If used properly, that platform can be transformed into something much bigger than $20k. As for the $20k… if I managed to pull this off, I’d hand the check over in full, to an organization that stops child predators and victims of child trafficking. (Jason Vukovich comes to mind). And trust me, I need the money. But this is more important.
