COVER PHOTO BY CHRISTINA GANDOLFO 10 GO FOR THE GOLD, ONE STEP AT A TIME Do you remember watching the Olympics as a kid and thinking, "Wow, I want to be a part of that"? For most of us, reality eventually sets in and we realize the dream of participating in the Olympics as an elite athlete is likely beyond reach. Instead, our dreams shift to hoping that one day we could possibly watch from the stands in person. As time goes on, we settle for the pleasures of watching the games from the comfort of our sofa with family and friends. Commitments to careers, carpools, cooking and cleanup can make taking that first step to improving your health seem insurmountable. But we don't have to compete in a triathlon on the first day we commit to being active, and everything doesn't have to be a competition. This summer, enjoy watching the Olympics wherever you are. Be inspired by the dedication that our athletes devote to their sports, and get up off the sofa during the commercials to take a walk around the block. There may not be a medal waiting for you when you come back home, but you will definitely feel energized and hopefully motivated to do it again at the next commercial break!
