In the Death Valley dorms, a group of people would
participate in an ongoing monthly fitness challenge, like abs in January and
squats in February. I did a couple sessions, but mostly my excuse for not doing a
daily fitness regime was that I hiked miles in the desert every day for work
and all I wanted to do was sit around and not exert energy.
But now the days of hiking while carrying 50 lbs of metal
are gone, so it’s time to enact a fitness challenge of my own. I have decided
to do a headstand every day, to keep the doctor away. Every day this summer
(starting today, Day 1 of Staff Week) I will do a headstand in a scenic
location for one whole minute. I can move my legs around but they can’t touch
the ground, and that’s the only rule.
Maybe it won’t be as effective as an ab workout, but I think I’ll enjoy the view more. And do a lot more tick checks on my head.
