Favorite Sports Movie/Moment

Movie: Miracle on Ice - I almost always root for the underdog!

 

Moment: Our 3 daughters have all participated in youth sports and as parents, we have tried to model a healthy active lifestyle.  So my favorite moments have very little to do with sports (although I have loved watching every single soccer game they have played in!) but more about hearing how they have carried those life lessons into adulthood.... "I'm going hiking with some friends.... anyone want to go to Yoga with me.... I'm heading to the gym.... I decided to train for a half marathon..."  They have learned endurance, hard work, resiliency, challenge, connection, team work and that endorphins make it impossible to move your body and feel worse!
