Record-breaking grandma

I'm a fairly inactive person. I've always wanted to be someone with lots of energy who goes for miles-long runs, weeds the yard (front and back!), scrubs the floors and walls, volunteers at the soup kitchen and cooks up a gourmet meal for the family -- all on a daily basis!

Not happening, though. That's just not me. Not even close. I'm proud of myself when I manage to take the dog on his walk and get dinner cooking in the crock pot.

Which is why an Australian grandma -- no, GREAT grandma -- I read about this morning completely floors me. She's 100 years old, she works out every day ... and she's breaking records in the world of sports.

Get a load of this ... then consider what kind of activity you have planned for the day!

That's so cool. I may have to share that with my trainer!

God's plan for ME is that I applaud her, not compete with her!

Oh wow.... how great is that!!!!
I'm with ya on the inactive thing. Never been much for sport and such... but this video is very inspiring. I love that she doesn't eat her veggies!! Classic.

Great post...

p.s. There's an award for you on my blog!!!
