Ringing in the New Year

For those who are not runners and may want to start running or biking or swimming or any activity for that matter:

The most common question we get asked is, "How do you find the time?" This is often followed with that person saying they don't have the time. The answer isn't an easy one but it can be much simpler than we make it.

You see.... we all have 24 hours in the day. How we choose to spend those hours is up to us. For us this may mean going to bed earlier to get up before the sun rises, or running after work, or in the middle of the day, or basically making it fit with our schedule in whatever way we need to.

So, do we have an extra 1 1/2-2 hours every day? No way! We have jobs, kids, husbands, homes, dogs, etc. BUT we do have 24 hours just like everyone else so we make it part of our schedule.


So if you are thinking toward the new year, resolutions and what not... think about the 24 hours you have and find a way to fit it in. The best part of running is that you can do it anywhere and all you need is a pair of running shoes. In fact, one of our favorite things to do is go on a run in a new city when on a work trip. So, go out there and run...or bike....or swim. But have fun and have a happy healthy new year!
