Health, Fitness and Travel CAN Work! A Traveler’s Fitness Plan

Since travel is such a focus of my life and getting healthy and fit are as well,  I am sharing my real-life opportunities and challenges of weight loss on the road in a “Six Weeks to Summer: A Traveler’s Fitness Plan” series.  If I can get more fit with this busy travel schedule, almost anyone can!

Here’s my schedule for the next 42 days leading up to Memorial Day Weekend:

16.April – 29.April  Traveling to Hong Kong,, 2 days in Hong Kong, departing Friday for a Princess 7-day cruise to China and Japan; 2 days in Tokyo; fly home

30.April Home

01-08-May Travel to Norway; client work

09-12-May Travel to Colorado Springs for BoardingArea conference

12-17May Travel back to Norway; more client work; travel home

18-20-May Home

21-23 May Houston

24-27 May Home

With 34 of the 42 days being on the road (most of it international), it’s enough to make me groan when I consider my fitness goals! Of these 34 days of travel, I have 6 international flights of two or three legs and 2 domestic flights.  All 34 nights will be spent in a hotel or on a cruise ship. Weight loss? Can I do this with a cruise and so many international flights?

I am sure going to give it my best! And I’m sharing with you how it’s going.

I hope that information I share helps you or someone you know with healthy living on the road with info on:
