Fitness blogging

I talked to The Wife about starting a new blog devoted to my fitness efforts, and she pointed out that I would do so much cross-posting that it would be a pain. So instead of a new blog, I have a new category: Fitness.

This is not just physical fitness I’m talking about, but fitness overall, for me in terms of what I value. From the thinklinkr outline I’m working on:

My plan for 2010 is to work steadily on these, which are listed roughly in order of priority (and, let’s admit it, in how appealing they are to me).

The mental fitness work right now consists of learning Spanish and reading books that are filling—right now, Herodotus.

So I’ll blog about this fitness project over the coming year, in which I’ll become 70, which seems a good time to work intensively on fitness since the distraction of having a job is gone. And what a distraction that was, I now realize. Some people talk about the pleasure of having a job that is fulfilling and satisfying enough so that they money they get is just lagniappe. Well, perhaps for the first couple of years of being director of admissions and tutor at St. John’s. I highly recommend retirement.
