Cardio & your heart.

I found this article to be interesting since I've started to run regularly:

Getting to the heart of cardio fitness matters via. Edmonton Journal

Long story short: physically active people have a 50% lower incidence rate of cardiovascular disease than those who aren't. Higher fitness = lower mortality.

HA, easy to like now. Not so easy to like when the alarm goes off every morning. And so much for my run in two weeks... the average high is -20. LOVELY! Good old Alberta, the only place where March can be the coldest month of the entire year!

Edmonton is cold but at least you have a mall, I spent 17 years in some place called Winnipeg and the winter wind gets you there.
Then I lived in Minneapolis and when I became a middle-aged new grad nurse I took my first job in Florida then became a travel nurse.

The older I get the less I like the snow and cold.
