Today I backtracked to catch up on my miles

I pushed 45 miles at an average of just over 10 mph. Tough going but when the going gets tough you just put your head down and keep on pushing! My arms and lungs are getting used to the new strain I’m putting on them. I’m starting to feel strength and an energy level I haven’t felt in years. I pushed down old Route 66. You might remember or have heard of the old tv show “Route 66”. I remember the jingle “You’ll get your kicks, – on Route 66”. I hope my Revolutions tour and the upcoming book will get people to kick their old bad habits of poor eating and inactivity and join the revolution to achieve fitness! We can do it! The people on the highways showed their support by honking and cheering me on. It really lets me know that people are starting to hear the message and understand what I am doing to inspire and motivate everyone to get fit.

Fitness is a personal thing. Each individual has to decide for themselves to get in shape and lead a healthier life. I hope that people can look at what I am doing then find the champion within to push forward and defeat their own imagined limitations. Mostly the things that limit us are our own fears. If we can just find the willpower to overcome fear and just try, more often then not we will overcome and succeed. The people that cheer me on and those I get to speak to on the Revolutions tour show me that people do want to live better, healthier lives. I see hope in their eyes and they are ready to make the commitment, they just need someone to show them the way. So I’m on the road, hoping to motivate, educate, and inspire, turning America on to fitness one revolution of the wheel at a time.
