It allows me to walk over 1,500 miles a year, camp, take a 1000 mile road trip on a motorcycle plus some in one summer. I look forward to other doors it opens for me in the future.
I encourage people to get fit. It'll open a ton of doors for you.
For me, its allowed me to do more of what I love. Golf and fishing seasons overlap. Being fit gives me the energy to do both regularly while still having energy to commit to my girl.
