Lately I have gotten pretty serious about my health & fitness.  Kelly says I’ve gone extreme.  THAT’S AWESOME!  Here’s just a few reasons why I began to workout:

1. My lifetime is directly proportional to my health.  I want to stay in the fight for as long as possible!
2. As a leader, I want to look my best in an effort to challenge others to be their best.  Have you seen Andy Stanley or Pete Wilson or Steven Furtick?! Those are some sharp dressed men!
3. I have one GORGEOUS fiance and I want to be a STAG for her!  (Song of Solomon 2:9) Maybe make her drool occasionally… ok, maybe that’s TMI… but I want my strength to secure & embrace her. (Song of Solomon 2:6)

a couple others that didn’t make the list:

• Have you seen the guys I work with?!  Jerimiah… Kevin… KLock… enough said!
• I have a honeymoon coming up… ENDURANCE!
