Day One

So I don't know about you, but I haven't worked out for about 10+ years. However I've noticed a dramatic change in my health and appearance. Um, it's not good if you're wondering. So, I decided to do something about it and join American Family Fitness.
I'm doing it for three reasons;
1. I'm running in the Marine Corps Half Marathon (oh God help me)
2. So I can be around when my kids get married.
3. I hope to instill a healthy lifestyle into my kids

So on day one at American Family Fitness, Erin took my family and I around to show us the amenities and benefits of being a member. WOW! It's amazingly impressive facility that breeds inspiration. The cool thing about this place is it's all-inclusive - weights, pool, classes for anything you can imagine and then some.
My wife and kids barely finished the tour with Erin before begging me to work out. I never expected to work out on the same day that we were to sign up - but there's no time like the present!
We all did 30 minuets on the treadmill (moderate pace), then went to the machines to "pump up".
Afterward we climbed the rock wall and finished with a good stretch. Total of about an hour and a half, but a great hour and a half.
Up next...
My first pictures of the "before" me. Ugh.
Oh, I almost forgot - Tell Erin or anyone at American Family Fitness that you're my friend, and they'll give you a free T-shirt when you join : )

Hope to see you there, or hear that you're starting healthy habits!
