Yes, This Is The Health & Wellness Blog jeff noel Hosts

Jack the Bear's handler, jeff noel, found a way to run in sub-freezing Anchorage

Of course, Lane 8 is one of five, daily, differently-themed blogs jeff noel writes. Lane 8 focuses on health, wellness, and work life balance. At times it may sound like a runner’s blog, and recently like a Baby Boomer blog. This is true.

Lane eight will always be about our physical responsibility. But jeff noel also reserves the editorial privilege to mix it up occasionally.

On the other hand, take working folks like me and you, we barely have time to eat breakfast, let alone carve out 30-60 minutes of physical activity.

I hadn’t been to the gym in 7 days. The choice was simple:

  1. Extend it to 8 days
  2. Find a way to get to the gym

Here’s what happened last night.

Of course, our choices aren’t limited to diet and exercise, they also extend to our spiritual balance.
