"If you called it playing a game, I was all over it. If you said, 'We're going to the gym to work out,' I'm like, 'Yeah, no, I'm not really going to do that.'"
"You don't have to be anywhere. You don't have to buy a fancy bike. You just have to step out your door."
"Alvis never set out to be a triathlete. It all started when he used to ride his bike 30 minutes to work in Palo Alto."
"The silver lining of the accident was that his insurance covered a new, expensive bike, prompting him to make the most of it by going for long-distance rides."
Sam Alvis, who dislikes traditional workouts, enjoys biking, running, and playing sports. At 70, he completed a half triathlon, finding joy in exercise through social activities and gradual progression. After a bike accident led to a new bike, he embraced long-distance rides and eventually tried a triathlon. Alvis emphasizes that exercise doesn't require fancy equipment or a gym; simply stepping outside can lead to a more active lifestyle.
