I was very curious when approaching retirement to see what kind of retiree I would be. Some people say that in early retirement they’re in the best shape of their lives and others seem to lean more into an “every day is a vacation” mindset aka “what’s a vegetable?” π . So I was simply curious. And like most things in my life, the answer seems to be: it’s complicated π . Let’s get into it. Continue reading “How My Diet And Fitness Changed In Retirement”

We started by saying “hi!” to family in New York State and then moved further east. So let’s see what I got up to!

It’s already been a year since I started running regularly for the first time in my life. Does that mean I’m officially a runner π ? Though if the term was up to me, I’d say anyone who runs any distance is part of the club – so welcome π . A while ago, I went into detail about my shock and surprise that I started running a year ago and ENJOY it. It was aptly called: From Hate To Love: How I Became A Runner.
