I love the elliptical because it's completely silent and doesn't have the jarring impact of jogging. I hate jogging but I love this thing. Good luck!

    Plus, on the perfectionist side of things, I compare myself all the time to Bono, Edge, Abe Lincoln, and John Mayer, so I'm screwed. hehe :-)

  • It's great that you see the need for balance in many areas of life. A lot of pastors have big blind spots, especially when it comes to physical fitness. We are supposed to honor God with our bodies! Good job, bro.
