I was not going to write about this as it is so fresh, so unbelievable and so hard to take for many, many people.
But is it too important.
IF you don’t know who Tim Russert is and what he did…view this video.
No matter what side of the political aisle you may sit on there is no doubt you trusted and respected the journalism and professionalism Tim Russert brought to the table. He was, in my opinion and in the opinion of millions of others…the best.
Fitness sometimes gets a bad rap. It’s usually marketed as something superficial (you know, the
six pack abs, flat tummy, etc.). The fitness industry is filled with fads, gimmicks and infomercials
with absolute crap.
But fitness is MORE than that.
Preventing disease.
Having more energy.
Living a longer life.
Feeling good.
Quality of life
Unfortunately, PREVENTION doesn’t sell.
As I learned of the news today while listening to FM talk radio in Boston, I marveled at the show’s host as he could barely speak because he was so upset at the loss of a colleague and aquiantance as well as being reminded of his own mortality.
Would Tim Russert have lived longer if he exercised regulary and ate well? Who can really say?
I am willing to be his wife and son, who just graduated from college, wish they could find out.
I pray for Tim’s family and friends.
