Cancer Survivor, writing about Health and Fitness as you age

Short post! What health and fitness advice is there for ME?  Do you ever feel like there is a lot of wellness inspiration and information for much younger men and women and also for much older people, but maybe not so much for those of us who are not quite either of those? Fit couple  I don't fall into this category of fitness. This is something else. Senior couple But neither to I fall into the category on the left - I am not quite that senior. Is it just me who thinks there no middle ground of health and fitness practices between the ages of 30 and 60? And I am talking about photos, health goals even exercise regime for those of us who are not the 20 or 30 year olds with rock hard abs, nor are we in the 60 plus age group...yet. I started thinking about this when my friends asked me about my regime after I posted out my fitness photoshoot.

There has been so much human suffering from natural disasters and mass shootings;  war; international tensions; weather extremes and increasing schisms in American society and worldwide. I  am very glad to leave 2017 behind and I worry about what I am leaving for the children of the world. What will 2018 bring? I don't make New Year's resolutions, at best I may have an idea of big swathes of what I would like to accomplish but usually nothing specific. This year, I cou
