    Remember Jim Fix

    Back in the 70s he authored a few books on jogging and started the whole jogging craze. He was found dead at 56 years old. Everything in moderation including exercise.

    (Except for beer drinking of course)

    Yeah, I've been swimming. I'm trying to get to 3 days a week, 30-40 minues of swimming. If I can get there and cut my diet down a little, I think I will be on the road to much better. My sedintary job is really taking a toll on my weight and general physical well being. Swimming is awesome because it doesn't hurt like jogging. I need to combine some moderate weight training in with my swimming though.

    I had two stents put in two years ago.
    They say the meds, will prevent a need for future stents.
    Plavix, Crestor, Metorprolol, are part of my daily routine.
    It does **** , that all the fun stuff is bad for you

    Take care

    In theory ... but ...

    Bren went back in the hospital yesterday with minor pains in her left arm (that went away almost immediately with 2 asperin). All tests came back negative for heart attack but they did the cathater (sp?) thang again. They found that one of the stents was narrowed so they removed it and replaced it with a slightly larger one.

    On the bright side - doc gave her a thumbs up for our trip to England/Ireland/Scotland.
