Get Healthy This Week

This week (September 20th – 26th) is National Healthy Living Week, where for one week and one week only you have to be healthy and active and then you can go back to the chips. 
I think. 
No wait hang on a minute, I’ll just scroll down a bit, right, this week is the first week of healthy living and then you have to keep it up for the rest of your life if you want to be happy, healthy and live a long time.
Now that sounds like a terrible stretch of time to be healthy but Cardiff has its own website to give you tips and pointers on how to turn yourself around and whip yourself into shape. 
From what to eat, to how much booze is too much, to how to give up smoking or how not to go bonkers, the site is packed full of useful information and links to organisations that can help you be healthy.
Chuck in a tidy events calendar and Robert is very much your mother’s brother, you've got yourself a one-stop shop for healthy Cardiffians on the web
But then you have to ask yourself, as Alphaville did in 1984, “Do you really want to live forever, forever forever?”, although they did also sing “Some are like water, some are like the heat, some are a melody and some are the beat” which really doesn’t make much sense at all. 
It’s probably better to listen to medical professionals instead of synth-wielding Germans… unless they’re Kraftwerk.  

Got something to say?
