Apparently, being able to climb stairs comfortably without stopping (or dying at the end of it presumably) is a good indication of overall health. We might be great at yoga - nice and bendy and strong - or great at cardio, running for miles but if it's one or the other, apparently that's not enough. I've managed to climb the stairs to the Whispering Gallery at St Paul's Cathedral and been fine but these.... these old, wobbly, beautiful things seem to challenge me. Maybe it's not the steps part but the steep slopes in between. Of course, they do lead up from #oldleigh with it's lovely selection of pubs so maybe that has something to do with it? Tell me how you got on the path to fitness. I’m looking for suggestions. . . . #leighonsea #womenshealth #midlifefitness #itsawonderfulmidlife #mindfulnessmidlife #midlifeandmindful #mindfulness
