Connect What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

Lots of things fuel my passion for health and fitness.Its about pushing my body, and competing against myself and others, I love the fact that staying fit makes my daily life enjoyable and more positive. Endorphins are a real thing, my body craves them, and it keeps my mind in a happy place. A bonus is I don't look my age, I don't feel my age, and I certainly don't act my age. I am a believer that a natural approach to health and fitness adds years to your life.

What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?

I make sure every single day I do at least one activity to burn calories, maintain endurance, fitness, and build endorphins. I do this by Running 3 to 10 miles, Swimming in the ocean or pool 1 to 1.5 miles, Ride my road bike 40 to 70 miles, Play pickleball 2 to 3 hour sessions, go to the gym, stretch and use TRX at the house, or just go on long walks. Some days I will do just one of these exercises or 2 of them if I am feeling good. Reading motivational books is great too, it gives me new ideas!

What would you do with $20,000?

If I won the $20,000 I would like to do some bigger travels that I have not been able to do. Like international travel, maybe a safari, rent a boat in Bora Bora for a week. I would give a bit of it to each of my 5 children and then the rest on me and my wife. I hope I have the opportunity to spend it. Thank you so much for the opportunity.
