Fitness For Moms and a New Pair of Shoes
By Jeff
I write so much about kids exercise that I sometimes forget talking about fitness for moms and dads. Health is just as important for parents and they are the ultimate model of health for their kids.
All parents experience something new when their kids first arrive on the scene. They use all their extra resources on the kids. After providing for the family’s basic essentials, the leftover money usually goes towards something for the kids.
I remember growing up and wondering why my dad took such good care of his shoes. It’s as if he had the same pair of dress shoes and tennis shoes for 10 straight years!
He would then go out and buy us the best baseball equipment, whether it was Nike Air cleats, a Rawlings glove or an Easton bat. This isn’t a story about personal finance if that’s what you’re wondering.
Here’s my point. Sometimes moms and dads forget their health is very important too and that means having a decent pair of shoes for exercise.
My Wife Has Rejoined The Fitness For Moms World
My wife met this really nice lady named Joanne Calderwood at a homeschool convention and she has a great Web site and program at Shoes2Lose.com where she has a “vision of encouraging moms to take care of themselves.”
She has a really neat story and you need to visit her site and give it a quick read. It will encourage you.
She picks one mom per month to receive a $100 gift certificate to go towards buying new athletic shoes. Pretty cool, huh!?
Guess what! My wife won! She was really needing a new pair of tennis shoes because she’s had the same pair for I don’t know how many years. This really was a blessing for us and now my wife has joined the fitness for moms world again.
She can start running, walking and working out in comfort again thanks to Joanne and her ministry.

Those are just a few of the benefits of fitness for moms so get out there and start exercising! My wife is super excited about her new pair of shoes and can’t wait to take the first family walk in them today.
