Obama the Athlete

By MJK | December 25, 2008

The Washington Post today reported that Obama is an avid athlete: As Duties Weigh Obama Down, His Faith in Fitness Only Increases. To all those who think I overtrain, the future President is into it much more. And according to his friend, this makes sense for him (and for me as well): “He doesn’t think of it as something he has to do — it’s his time for himself, a chance for him to reflect. It’s his break. He feels better and more revved up after he gets in his workout.”

Now we just need to get Obama off smoking completely (how he can smoke and train like this is beyond me) and into competitive stairclimbing!

I agree. A change of perception can turn lemons to lemonade.

I currently reside in New York city. I truly enjoy discussing, debating, and thinking about global political and social issues. After many years, I was encouraged to start my own blog so that I could share my ideas at large, and learn from the comments and interactions with the general public. From an ideological perspective, I would consider myself a moderate-conservative, but often take centrist positions on certain issues.
