Fitter at Forty: 31 Days of Blogging

Because I need one more thing on my plate...

I joined this crazy 31 Days Challenge.

31 Days of blogging daily during the month of October.

I'm doing this because I turn 40 this month. And to say I have mixed feelings about it would be the understatement of the century. On the one hand, I feel great. I'm happier and healthier than I've ever been before. I feel secure about who I am and what I'm doing. So, 40 is a huge thing to celebrate! On the other hand, I have two teens in high school. And I have these deep moments of nostalgia where I can't believe my babies are nearly grown, and I realize that those baby days are getting farther and foggier.

So, 31 days of reflections on being Fitter at Forty: a little bit CrossFit, Obstacle Course Racing and Training, Nutrition and Aging.

Here we go.
