The Shape I'm In

Guy Lafleur played in the NHL until he was 40 years old in 1991. Last year, I said I would probably play rugby until I was 37 which, at the time, meant for another 5 years. That sitll holds true but now that I have dome some research and see that Guy played until he was 40, that might be a goal I can strive for. Time will tell.

The reason I mention this now is that we are a full 6 weeks into the year, less then 4 months from rugby season actually starting and I am a good 15lbs overweight. Now I like to think that Guy did little besides smoke and drink for his off-season training program but having already tried that to little success I think it's time to try something different. .So, with that in mind, I hit the gym for the first time this year yesterday. My goal is to shed a few pounds, rearrange some others, and find a way to put my socks on without needing to sit down. If these things happen I might be able to stretch this game out for a few more years.

Again, time will tell...

Pace out.
