I had to get off the couch and go have my own Olympic moment today.
This is a photo of me after a 9-mile bike ride in 102 degree heat. Don't worry, I always turn red. A frozen water bottle pressed on my neck calmed that right down.
I felt strong. I was moving. I am an athlete, just like those on the world stage.
I was really inspired to get moving when the women beach volleyball started. Those women do not have couch-potato bodies.
Robin,
ReplyDeleteI asked a question before I read your perfect moment piece. I thought I was seeing sunburn and s...... Obviously, you are an athlete! No one but a good athlete can bike any miles in 102 heat in the desert and still be alive! Congratulations! I watched the professional women athletes of both Brazil and America play a beautifully spirited game even if there were errors on one side in particular. Just to see healthy bodies in action doing their best was beautiful to behold.
Thanks for noticing. I am an athlete .. may be a middle of the pack weekend warrior, but I'm out there. It was hot and I turned pink. But it felt good for sure.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
Love those moments of feeling strong and athletic! A perfect moment for sure! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is so inspiring. You GO, GIRL!
ReplyDeleteI just might get off this couch thanks to you.
