Weekend Roundup - Wedding Edition

Filed Under Weekend Roundup 

I’m getting married this weekend! In fact, the civil ceremony already happened on Friday, and today is the reception. Which is all very exciting. So forgive me if today’s post is a bit short, my mind is all over the place. And now, on to some useful articles.

From Mark’s Daily Apple we have this article about running barefoot. I thought it was interesting because of our discussion this week about running. I’m not sure I buy into this “run like our ancestors did”. I mean, as much as believe in living naturally, I’m not going to go back to living naked and barefoot. Still, it’s an interesting idea.

For the opposite view point, we have this article from Cranky Fitness. Crabby over there is comparing her lifestyle to those of cavemen as a way of exploring motivation and the need to be fit. Again, I’m not sure I agree with this. Exercise does not have to be boring or bad. If you need to play a tune or watch TV then do it. If you want to run on a trail and appreciate the view around you, then do that. Just find what motivates you and stick with it. You don’t need a sabretooth chasing you to feel motivated.

And from Half-Fast, we have this article about stupid exercise ideas and the people who buy them. I thought it was spot on for the series of articles we’re going through this week on 60 in 3. Silly ideas like this are something you want to avoid when you’re trying to get in shape. They promise instant results with minimal effort and are basically useless. Stick to the basics, weight training, cardio and a healthy diet. It beats everything else hands down.

    Ooops! I managed to misspell my own name on that last comment. Should have been Vanilla.
