How did you first become interested in health and fitness? Growing up and into my early twenties, I was <a href=/category/equestrian-video>an equestrian</a>. So being an athlete, staying fit, and being healthy was super important to allow me to perform at my best, both physically and mentally. For me, riding wasn't just a hobby, it was my life, so it has been hard for me to find balance of being okay with doing it casually. I am somewhat of an all-or-nothing type of person. That being said, I try to still ride occasionally on weekends or when I go to Florida to visit all my friends, who are still equestrians. Every time I do, though, I am reminded of how much strength it takes when I wake up the next day and find it a bit hard to walk.Is Pancho an athlete, too? I keep Pancho in shape by taking him on lots of walks, hikes, and running with him along the Hudson River. He loves going on long hikes so I do my best to get out of the city as much as possible so he can get off the leash and run around. When we can't get out of the city, I take him to Central Park on the weekends and let him run around in the mornings. We also go on a long walk when I come home from the office. It’s a great way for us both to unwind. He also comes to the office with me and when there are other dogs there he gets to play all day, which also helps keep him fit.
