He is a good story about my Family’s 4th of July.
My wife has recently joined my caveman food habits, after seeing the effects and doing a bit of research of her own. So we prepared some local veggies, fruits and Salmon for a barbeque at the water front to have some fun and watch the fireworks.
We get there 3 hours early and parking was already completely full. I ended dropping off the family and all of our supplies, parked at the other end of the boardwalk and did a brisk 2 mile walk-jog to get back, all down hill at a 6% grade. No big right? After all, we SHOULD park a good distance away whenever possible. (see BigKhanz’s post about parking

After the fireworks, I didn’t want to leave my family in the park at night. So I packed muled it back with all our of our supplies, about 55lbs in total. Yep UP the 6% grade this time.
Not that this was a major feat but here’s the moral. A month and a half ago, that would have killed me. Yesterday, I barley broke a sweat. Always be on the lookout to put in that little extra effort. It’s a great way to reward yourself for the hard work your doing and come away excited.
Eating right, combined with high endurance workout every weekday, and I have to say, CAVEMEN ROCK!!
Stay healthy!
