    Welcome!

    Start 2013 off the right way, get moving!! Whether you are 100% raw, vegan, or just starting out, being active will further improve your overall well being.

    The intent of this thread is help inspire you to move; don't worry about what you can't do, but focus on what you can.

    it doesn't matter if you walk a 1/4 mile, run 10 miles, P90X, Insanity; it's about getting out and making a difference in your life. By making the difference in your life you then will have a positive effect on those around you. If you are sitting in the sidelines, get on board No one will judge you, just get involved!

    Yay! January!!. Happy New Year to all!

    Today I biked about 10 miles, and walked an hour. Anyone know any good yoga books/dvds that teach you proper breathing techniques and is overall good for beginners?

    Genesis 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind,
    and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind:
    and God saw that it was good.

    not because it is far away and can’t be reached but because it is so intimately close,
    closer than anything that can be spoken." - Gangaji

    Got a rebounder for Christmas. Just tried it out today. It's a lot harder than it looks.

    Also this morning, did 25 push-ups and took the dog for a 2 mile walk, but she started getting tired after a mile and a half.

    Yesterday morning, walked a mile. Yesterday evening walked 1½ miles, jogged ¾ mile.
    I'd rather eat vegan and look like a tree than eat cow and look like a pig.
