The dictionary defines an athlete as a person trained or gifted in exercises or contests involving physical agility, stamina, or strength; a participant in a sport, exercise, or game requiring physical skill.
Our bodies were designed to move. We are all athletes and capable of often doing more than we think we can or actually do, myself included. Let your inner athlete out. If you like to walk or run, join a team or training group. Did you know that a large percentage of people completing half-marathons walk them?
Competing is one way of getting regular physical activity. Another might be going to the gym a few times a week, bike riding, swimming or doing yoga. Remember the definition of an athlete is a participant in a sport, exercise, or game requiring physical skill.
If you choose to challenge yourself keep it fun, and gradually build up to doing more.
