Age Is Just A Number

It seemed like an apt day to quote my most recently completed read, "Age Is Just A Number" by Dara Torres. The 41-year old Olympic medalist mother.

"As an athlete-mom, I swam five days a week for two hours and did strength training four days a week for 90 minutes after my swim practice. I would have been just as happy to work out more, but that amount of exercise made my body perform best."

Here's my version:

"As an athelete-actuary, I walk into work five days a week for ten minutes and do grocery shopping four days a week for 15 minutes after my work day. I would have been just as happy with a Hoveround to carry me, but that amount of exercise made my body perform occasionally."
