C.O.D. - The BeerFit way of Life.

The COD - "Compromise of the Day" - In the interest of offsetting caloric intake and justifying your obsession with hard to find and meticulously crafted ales, this is where you compromise your time by engaging in some sort of physical activity that stimulates your aerobic system. While necessary to maintaining some sort of reasonable physical appearance, I'd prefer to keep a real "glass half-full" outlook on this and point out that the COD should get you psyched up for beer. I don't really care (that much) about my waistline, but sweetjeebus that bomber of Imperial Stout just is more rewarding after a good trail run.

Today's COD is more cerebral; perhaps more about adrenaline than lactic acid:
Go out and find a big hill to skateboard down, look for one at least a few miles long if possible. Do it three times (what you'd call "reps" in a gym). Lose your breath walking up, and scare the crap out of yourself on the way down.

I'd say you've earned at least 3 Mammoth Epic IPAs for that workout!
