The Last Word... BCMC Athletics – A Perfectly Roaring Success
Joe Kannapell - Senior VP
MiTek Industries, Inc. Look at these folks in the picture (I am not naming names) and tell me that www.mii.com they look like a bunch of sterling athletes. None of them excels at running, all are just trying to maintain reasonable conditioning, while having a little fun. One has lost 30 pounds in the last year when he started running. Another is on a path to do his first marathon. Another signed up with Orange Theory and can work out vigorously nearly anywhere he stops on the road.
Working to lose weight, or just to keep from gaining weight, is a good reason to get outside and exercise. Walking or cycling is a fine way to start. On a perfect day like Thursday of BCMC, we enjoyed traversing the beautiful pedestrian bridge over the Missouri River, within sight of the casinos in Iowa. And into a roaring wind on Tuesday of BCMC we had a tough bike ride, but folks of all skill levels finished the ride. When we got back to the Show, we knew we had done something good for ourselves. “The toughest step to good fitness is your first step out of bed,” a wise person once said. Likewise, the first step you take to exercise will be difficult, and your body may bark for a time, but after a couple of months, you’ll know you’re doing a good thing. It’s never too late to start, and please join us walking, running, or cycling at BCMC 2018 in Milwaukee.
