Why is good health so important?

Question

May 11, 2004

Hi, My name is Jeremy Long and I just had a few questions that I was hoping you could answer for me.
1) Why is endurance so important to the daily life of humans?
2) Why is good health so important?

I am a cyclist so I pretty much understand all this but I would just like a little clearer understanding. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you soon.

Answer

Good physical health is important, so that you can function effectively. An analogy is that a bicycle is not "healthy" if it has a flat tire. You can still ride it, but not very well.

A person can be disabled and still function with what is left and still be considered healthy. But a sickly or injured person struggles with pain and just doesn't feel like doing things.

A person needs enough endurance to do what is normal for him or her. Some people are so out of shape (or overweight) that they cannot climb a flight of stairs without getting winded.

Of course, a bicyclist would like greater endurance to be able to travel long distances.
