What A Little Running Can Do For You

1 March 2011March 1, 2011Eric

This article from the Wall Street Journal is a wonderful example of how exercise (running in this case) can be a part of your lifestyle-the nutrition too. It's not about perfect or Olympic size endeavors (as the profiled runner speaks to).

We're doing all that we can at Epic Living to address your Total Life. Start somewhere, start small and see success follow.

What I Do For Health And Fitness

17 December 2010December 17, 2010Eric

The following is a typical day in my life relating to my health and fitness:

Running, strength training and Yoga (this group rotates depending on the day and goes for an hour)
Green tea (cold), oatmeal and coffee
Soy/Protein shake with fruit
Omelet w/tablespoon of cheese and salsa, soy and flax tortilla chips, flavored water
Yogurt wi/walnuts, granola, fruit (berries)
Deep breathes (easy to forget)
Green tea (cold), almonds
Lean meat, spinach and/or salad, some type of complex carb, 1-2 glasses of red wine
Dark chocolate
Apple

OK, now that I've given you what a day in my health and fitness life looks like, I thought I would give you a list of my weaknesses. I am human after all.

Chocolate (all varieties and applications)
Sugar Cookies
Apple Crisp
Regular tortilla chips
Egg Nog
Pizza

I do indulge from time-to-time, but the first list is my "everyday habit."

So why do I bother? I've been given this gift of life and I want to take care of it. I also have enough years of totally disregarding my health to know it's important to not take anything for granted.

Top Finds/Discoveries For 2009

30 December 2009December 30, 2009Eric

Almost a tradition here, so the following are my finds/discoveries for 2009:

Love is stronger than death.
The way of entrepreneurism has many twists and turns. I'm learning to be comfortable with what I don't recognize.
Brancaia Tre…2006 to be precise.
Tony Cefalu. He's the real deal.
Pennington Insurance Services, LLC (a little self-promotion never hurts).
Those that love you need time to process change, just like you do.
I still miss my dad.
Started eating this food on a regular basis and its made a difference.
Legos (really), they've opened a window into how precious the moments are with my son.
Marcella'sis the restaurant where I celebrated my 18th wedding anniversary. I was wide awake in a dream.
Running became a way of life.
I found this discfrom Gino Vannelli. He reworked a lot of his old favorites. A beautiful voice set to beautiful music.
This organization stuck with me, even though I haven't given them a dime in almost four years. Integrity filled with love matters.

I'm sure there's more, but I didn't think you'd make it to 25. Cheers to your new year!
