"Fast" Exercise On The Run

I've just discovered the answer to one of life's questions (or at least one of MY recent life questions): How can you stay in shape living full time in an RV traveling to new places about every month? Of course there is race walking, hiking, and occasional biking and scuba diving but on a regular basis there is no weight program or fitness center which will accept "gypsies". How about a women's club that is 30 minutes of heart pounding, weight bearing, fast paced fun? CURVES
I learned I can sign up for just a month so I've been going every morning and loving it. Now when we move to our next spot I will search out a local Curves and hopefully they, like the one in Keystone, Florida will allow me access to their facility a month at a time. Check it out if you are looking for some good, quick exercise.
Keeping my body in shape physically honors God and that is my goal for 2010.

Therefore I have chosen the following verses to keep foremost in my mind this year.

1. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, who you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.

2. Romans 12:1-2
Therefore, I urge you brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
