I read in Patrick Quillan's "Beating Cancer with Nutrition" that 15 hours of exercise a week decreases the chance of cancer recurrence by 60%. This is a tough goal--3hours a day if you give yourself weekends off. I have been doing 5 to 10 miles a day on the treadmill and I find it hard to get that in. (10 miles would be about 3 hours for me.) So, my conclusion is that this is not supposed to be easy. However, the rewards are there if you can set an exercise goal and stick with it. I am learning something in perseverance and in multitasking. I can have some good talks with God on the treadmill.
The spiritual counterpart to this tip is running the race of Christianity. I think that learning to have a steady relationship without the huge ups and downs is my goal now. I have a past walk with God that was more like the hare in the "Tortoise and the Hare" story.
