Kendo
My struggle with weight has been a long one, to say the least. When Laura and I first started dating, I went on a diet and met with succcess. However, during Laura’s pregnancy with our son, Byron, I put on a lot of sympathy weight. Since then, I’ve done little to get my weight under control, and rather than really applying myself to the goal of becoming healthy, I’ve kind of left the subject untended. Aside from disc golfing during the week, I don’t do a whole lot in the way of physical activities. This is on account of a number of factors, ranging from my own laziness to not having an activity that inspires me. For over a year I’ve been telling friends about Kendo and my intentions to take it up, but I haven’t pursued it. Well, I’ve finally decided to take action and pursue the dream. Tomorrow night I’m going go meet with the sensei from the Obukan Kendo Club, watch a session to see what Kendo’s all about, and join up. I can’t wait.

Good luck, man. I took kendo for a semester in college, and really enjoyed. But it was I think the hardest I ever worked in an organized ’sport’. I get tired just thinking about it.
I hope you have fun tonight!
