Small Steps
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Last week I wrote about what I wanted to be able to do when I'm 85. I closed that article with the feeling that I had left something out, but I couldn't think of what it was. Thankfully several of you knew what it was -- it's never too late to start.
Whether you're 35, 75, 86 or any other age, you can make the next year better, healthier & happier. Start where you are now and move forward. Try something new. Try something you haven't tried since you were a kid. Take a small step or a huge leap, but START!
Try Zumba, Latin-rhythms and easy-to-follow moves. Several people mentioned Zumba to me this week -- sounds like fun for everyone. Here's one site you can use to find a Zumba class near you (p.s. ignore the distances they give, they aren't accurate). search.zumba.com/classes
What will you try this week?

5k Walk Training Schedule for Beginners
Does a triathlon interest (and maybe intimidate you)?
- Try a Danskin Triathlon. A women's-only sprint (shorter not faster) triathlon that is an amazing event to be a part of. Locations throughout the mainland. www.danskintriathlon.net
- For men and women, try BeginnerTriathlete.com. Looks like a very supportive site for those who want to lose weight by training for a triathlon.
Team Survivor-- groups/teams that focus on fun group exercise opportunities and support programs for women with a present or past diagnosis of cancer. At present there is no Team in Hawaii, but you can start one.
