I find inspiration and energy in exercise that happens outdoors. Forest Park (pictured below) is an ideal place for me to push myself. I’m distracted from the physical pain by the beauty of the park, while at the same time reminded that it takes a long view to create, maintain and improve this treasure (the park, not my body). The park challenges me to think about what I’m doing that will last. What are any of us doing that will benefit others for generations to come? Exercise presents a challenge that is real today, and the park reminds me to think beyond the three feet in front of me. My business is better for struggling with these two opposing forces.
