An accounting definition of “asset” is a tangible or intangible thing, person or quality that which is owned and of value. Well, an important asset of value that I want to "own" is the best version of my health and fitness. The sedentary lifestyle inherent in many careers like accounting, working long hours at a desk can contribute to a number of health issues over time. That's why I’ve been a lifelong cyclist to keep active. So, each year I cycle more than 3,000 miles and also add running and gym strength training to my routines. I've found that combining these three activities, each with its own specific benefits, provides for a balanced, year-round fitness routine that works well for me. I began cycling at an early age, eventually then racing during my twenties in the 1980's, and have now been cycling for more than 50 years. Cycling also provides me a fun and interesting way to travel in new places, including in Europe attending the pro cycling racing classics and riding some of the same race routes there on my bike. Another rewarding aspect of cycling is as part of charitable fund-raising events knowing the funds are always going for a good cause. Overall, cycling with its many health benefits is a great lifelong activity that works well for maintaining fitness as we age.
