Hello and welcome everyone! For the past 40 years I have been bothered
by a chronic left hamstring and groin. When ever I pull the left hamstring
I also pull the left groin. The hamstring and groin were tender going into
The Senior Olympics this week. About 30 meters into my first event, the
100m, I pulled the hamstring and groin. I finished the race, basically on
one leg. I attempted the long jump and high jump by going off my right
leg. When I finished, I just walked away...dejected. I would rather lose an
an event rather than have an injury force me out.The same thing happened
at the 2009 Senior olympics. Must be the "odd years" thing. So now it's back to the
drawing board to try and get ready for the Nationals and the State Games.
Have a great and meaningful life everyone! JimmyO

"WHAT I HAVE LEARNED ABOUT...."
Hello and welcome everyone! Summer is entering the "eclipse zone." A reminder of life and aging. A reminder for me...I have so much I want to accomplish in my life, things I need to
do before my life is "eclipsed." All of us have a "gift" to share, a vision, and something to take
care of...to accomplish. From a personal standpoint...1) help discover a cure for cancer.
2) motivate Seniors on a healthy living style...in September I will again be teaching fitness
classes (11 per week) and my goal is to have 250 Seniors enroll. 3) finish my book on our
generation. 4) continue competing. 5) continue my motivational speaking. 6) organizing
youth fitness programs.
Update: my rehab is coming along ok. I will decide on Friday of this week as to whether I can
compete in the Senior Games on August 8. I need to practice patience. I have a great support
group which helps. I have learned (again), some things in life, you cannot rush.
By the way, Friday, I was invited to attend a youth concert. This group just returned from
Europe, Italy and Germany. What an outstanding performance! No wonder this teen age
group received an invite to return to Europe. I counted seven standing ovations! Average age,
18.
In this blog I wanted to take a step back, take a deep breath and smell the roses. Next week,
back to fitness and something I want to share with you.
