The World is Our Playground

This morning my spinning teacher left us with something pretty awesome to think about. He said, "Treat the World Like Your Playground". What did he mean? Stop treating the world as an uninviting obstacle. Climb it, Hike it, Ride it, Swing on it. Go as Fast or Go Slow. Whatever makes you comfortable. Play Well with Others. Let others help you on the monkey bars. Try your best until you can get across. Swing as high as you can. Enjoy the sunshine. Jump as high as you can and Laugh as hard as you can. The world is our playground. Explore every inch of the road, the water, the city, the mountains. Don't abuse it, live with it, peacefully. And enjoy it.

This was his philosophy that left us pretty psyched for the day. He shares it with his friend and famous marathon runner, Uta Pippeg. She has a pretty inspiring website as well, inspiring new and beginner fitness people to take the steps to get out there and play!

Maybe if we all looked at the world as a playground, not to be abused but enjoyed, we'd have a lot more fun!
