Love what makes you active and healthy

I have always loved being active. It started as a young girl and my dad loving basketball. Hence I loved it too. I wanted to be a Physical Ed teacher. Well life happened and things didn't work out to be a teacher. So I guess I did something close, became an aerobic instructor. Taught for 9+ years then moved to another state so could just take classes. Then tried a spinning class and in 3 weeks of taking them started to see a difference in my pants. They were getting loose! After 6 years of spinning bought a road bike and I was hooked. Now after riding for 6 years, doing 11, 100 miler rides, there is nothing like being outside riding. Gets rid of stress, burns tons of calories, develops awesome leg muscles. Found lots of friends to ride with. All which are 10-20 years younger than me. So the moral of the story is to stay active, eat healthy and it will help you stay young. I know because I am 60 and everyone thinks I am around 45. DO WHAT YOU LOVE AND IT ISN'T LIKE EXERCISE! IT JUST BECOMES FUN!
