Wii fit, healthy competition!

One of the best things about being a part of three very competitive families (Webbs, Ropers and Walls) is that there is always incentive to do and be better (or the best) – regardless the subject.

Just after the marathon Millie and I bought Wii fit (so did the Ropers). The Walls have had it for some time and they really showed us a thing or two when we were staying with them that week of the marathon, and it set up a benchmark of what to shoot for – speaking strictly of the balance games. Sure Wii fit (aerobics, strength training and yoga) is really about personal development and betterment - competition against one's self only; but let’s be honest, the balance games are only there for fun, or in our families’ cases, competition!

Now that Millie and I will no longer be registered on the Roper’s Wii fit (to make room for Brandon and Katie – a major flaw in the fit, only eight can be registered at a time, lame-o!!!) I wanted to make sure my competition base stays broad and keeps pushing my limits! Thanks to Rob and Annie, and even Abbie in some games, I have been forced to shoot for perfection to remain on top! Thanks guys!

I don’t want to lose that edge, or competition, so I’ve decided to post where I stand on a few of my better performances (pictures are posted above their label):
