Yes . . . today is my birthday and I am turning 48 years old. I am very proud of my age (unlike others, age is a burden.) To me it's not. I am healthy and active and I think that makes a HUGE difference in how you view your age.
I thought that for today you would get a Birthday Workout from me. Have fun with this one!
