The pic featured in this article (click here to see article), really makes me miss the bay area!  I used to run from Berkeley to Lake Merritt during my training runs for my half and full marathons back in the day.  

I definitely worked out the most when I was in undergrad at UC Berkeley, and then that gradually decreased in grad school at USC, and nowww that I’m actual Physical Therapist and need to promote healthy living and exercise, I feel like I have barely any time to exercise at all since I’m so tired from clinic, home patients, and weekend work!   

I wish I could do what Simon Wood-Fleming does, and go for a job around a nice area and then get back to work, but unfortunately don’t have a nice area or a shower at my convenience ha.  

How do other PTs keep up?  I have one crazy friend who is also a PT who is lucky enough to live a few miles from the beach and a few miles from work (her hospital is on the beach!)  So she can enjoy a nice workout more easily.  I can imagine that people that work 4- 10 hour days have a super hard time finding time to exercise.  Luckily my job involves chasing little kids all day long and that I have a dog that demands to go on jogs the second I step in the house, or else I’d be in big trouble!
