Hanging out with BFL Champions


A rose between two thorns: Ken Young, Julie Whitt, and John Lesko Posted by Hello


One of the highlights of my most recent BFL challenge -- funny how we begin to measure time in 12-week increments -- was enjoying a tour of the White House.

One of the coolest things about the BFL community is the bond that exists between those who've signed up and committed themselves to finishing a challenge. And then when you get the chance to just 'hang out' with a couple of champions ... well this too is pretty cool.

Everyone has a story. Everyone has obstacles to overcome. And I honestly believe that just about anyone can find it in themselves, the strength needed to live a healthier lifestyle. Funny thing is ... There are folks out there willing to help if you just accept the fact that it's so, so much easier to start and finish a challenge with their help. Reciprosity, thank God, is a two-way street.

What a trio to spread the BFL word in our Nation's capitol! I'm surprised you weren't asked to speak before a hearing or two.
Hey John you really look great!
