Fitness is the new mid-life crisis means problem

Are we in a state of avoidance, or is it just a rediscovery of life? yes what it means
A friend of a friend (FoF) — the only way the best stories get remembered — arised few trouble in his marriage. He spoke about it one night on a trekking expedition, by the side of a camp fire, guard down, spirits up. When the group met for another mountain meeting the following year, the FoF was asked if these things were showing better or not. He said indeed they were. He now got up at 4.20 am to run 10k before heading out to a 10-hour hard working day. Over the weekend, he’d joined a cycling group that did five-hour trips to the outskirts of town. There was no time for a proper‘discussion’, making the marriage sail along smoothly.

If you are a member of any WhatsApp group that swims, cycles, or runs, you’ll also feel couples are rarely on these together. Nor is it a bring-a-friend-along kind of party. In fact, it’s a space you leave your day-job and real-life roles out of — a getaway from home, family, social circles, bosses — all that is boring. Most people on these groups are over 37, working, and running/cycling/swimming. Some, of course, do all three things and practise properly. Or more. The Everest Base Camp has also become the local hangout for the mid-lifer. Tell me now you know at least two people who have been there, done that.
