French Open Inspires Cardio-Stamina May 22nd, 2008

Few things in life inspire me the way athletes do. I am not much of an athlete and I would say that my cardio-stamina is lacking but I still love to try to improve. When I watch professional athletes, I always feel like I should try to be more like them. Watching the French Open tennis news coverage always inspires me to get out my racket and play a match or two.

I love, love, love to catch the French Open results and I always make bets with my husband to see who we think will win, versus who we want to win. I knew that Justine Henin would win that past two years and my husband owed me twenty bucks or so. Now last year her French Open scores were amazing. I don’t think she lost a single match. I wish that I could be that methodical and just play my heart out and win.

I also get inspired when I watch the Olympics and I see the runners or gymnasts, the divers or the swimmers. Most all of those athletes work so hard at what they do that they have little time for anything else. That inspires me to want to do more with my life and not be selfish about my time and it inspires me to be more physical.
