My number one personal goal: Longevity
I remember a little while ago I was having a conversation with my son and he asked me what my goal was regarding my fitness. I found myself stumped for a moment and couldn’t answer him. I thought about some of my accomplishments in my life; TaeKwonDo competitor in my younger days, climbed a couple of mountains, ran a couple of marathons, raced mountain bikes, not even reflecting on my professional life.. all this cool stuff and I didn’t have a concrete goal in mind.
After much thought, I came up with a one word answer; Longevity.
I am writing this little article as I am on a trip with my brother hiking the highest peaks in the north east; so far we climbed 13,000+ ft, 45 miles and summited the highest peaks in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York and Vermont with still two more treks to go. I reflected on the idea of longevity and how I want to do this stuff for the rest of my life.
Soooo, my ultimate goal now is to have the ability to sustain my current lifestyle and continue doing really cool, out of the box stuff, for the remainder of my days. Living my life to the fullest without sacrificing doing what I love to do. What do you think?
