Why I’m Getting Healthy
I want to get healthier.
Part of that is simple: I want to be the best competitive pinball player I can be. Staying active, walking more, and taking better care of myself helps me stay sharp and enjoy the game longer.
But the real reason goes beyond pinball.
I want to be around for my family. I want to see my grandbaby grow up and be there for as many milestones as life will give us. The birthdays, the school days, the moments that make up a lifetime.
Pinball has already given me something incredible — a community of people who have become friends and extended family.
The leagues, the tournaments, and the people around them have been wonderful for my mental health and my happiness.
So the walking, the wellness, and the small everyday changes are part of that gratitude.
They’re my way of making sure I can keep enjoying this life, this community, and the people who make it meaningful.
This isn’t about chasing a perfect fitness goal.
It’s about living a life — and being around long enough to enjoy it.
What Wellness Looks Like Here
Real life. Real movement. Real food. Real progress.
This is wellness without perfection — walking, dancing, pinball, incidental movement, mindset shifts, and simple, realistic food prep that supports everyday life. No extremes, no shame — just honest progress, balance, and encouragement for anyone starting (or restarting) their wellness journey.
