I told you the other day why I exercise. It went like this.

  • It makes up for the extra calories I eat.
  • It fuels my day with energy -- I'm an AM exerciser.
  • It motivates me.
  • It makes me feel accomplished.
  • It makes me feel healthy.
  • It makes me feel strong.
  • It helps me maintain my weight.
  • It's give me time alone.
  • It allows me to role model a behavior I hope my kids will embrace.
  • It keeps cancer away -- research says five hours of weekly strenuous exercise helps prevent breast cancer recurrence.

Then I asked: Why do you exercise? Here's what a few of you said.
