- [Stepping Away from Ministry](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2025/06/09/stepping-away-from-ministry/) - This post is one that is very difficult for me. I'm sharing something my parish has known for the last couple of months. The time of my public ministry is quickly coming to an end, at least for now. I'm taking time away to work on myself: mental, physical, and spiritual health. The stress of
- [Birthday Walk](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/07/17/birthday-walk/) - It was a great day for a birthday walk!
- [Getting Moving](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/07/10/getting-moving/) - So my lack of weight loss is telling me that my lack of movement is a problem. So I got out on a warm day off and walked for three miles. It felt good, but I did have to stop a couple of times to sit in the park (which wasn't all bad: I got
- [Small Win](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/06/28/small-win/) - You have to take every little win when you’re trying to get back on your feet. I’ve been struggling with plantar’s fasciitis for a couple of months, and I finally told myself to get in to the podiatrist. The exercises he gave me seem to be helping, and I was feeling well enough today to
- [Quick Home Walk](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/06/12/quick-home-walk/) - It was one of those days off when I just didn't have a lot in me. Plus I had a bunch of chores to do. But, in between, I did get in a short treadmill workout. I definitely didn't want to stroll in the 90 degree heat and amid the screaming cicadas (I was hoping
- [Short Saturday Prayer Walk](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/06/08/short-saturday-prayer-walk/) - I just had around a half hour to walk today, so I did a short Rosary/Divine Mercy walk in the neighborhood around the Rectory. Beautiful day, and I smelled roses where there were no roses, so I reconsecrated my life and priesthood to the Blessed Virgin Mary on this, the memorial of her Immaculate Heart.
- [Sometimes I Have to Convince Myself](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/05/29/sometimes-i-have-to-convince-myself/) - So I know I need to get the exercise in, but lately I have found every excuse not to. Today, I had the time, the weather was great, and there was no reason not to go out and get in the long walk I have been needing. Except, of course, I really wanted to take
- [Quick Gym Session](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/05/22/quick-gym-session/) - It was a busy day off, but I found 45 minutes to get to the gym and do a cardio workout. Treadmill, elliptical, and recumbent bike. It got my heart rate up and made all the other events of 5he day more enjoyable. That’s always good!
- [Afternoon Quiet Punch](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/05/18/afternoon-quiet-punch/) - I had to talk myself into it, but, as usual, I’m glad I did. Easy 20 minute Quiet Punch workout was a little tough on the plantar’s fasciitis, but not terrible. And even though it was an easy/beginner level workout, it still helped me sweat.
- [Gym Work](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/05/15/gym-work/) - I swear, my injured foot bothers me less during exercise than during work. I’m not sure what that’s telling me! So I got to the gym today and did half an hour on the treadmill and then some upper body strength training. I have to say it felt really good. Love my gym!
- [I was going to go to the gym, but…](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2024/05/08/i-was-going-to-go-to-the-gym-but/) - Seriously, I was all set to go to the gym, but… I literally couldn’t pass up this beautiful spring day. In Chicagoland, not going outside on a sunny, slightly breezy, 75° day is at least a venial sin, so I put on some sunscreen and a ball cap and headed out on the DuPage trail,
- [New Process](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2023/02/28/new-process/) - So, I figured out I need to have a process to work on my physical activity, or I just won't do it. Thankfully, my Quiet Punch bag (get one here, use code FATHERPAT10 to get 10% off!) comes with a great app with, I don't know, dozens of great workouts. I'm starting off slow, so
- [Oof, time to make changes!](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2023/02/14/oof/) - So I got on the scale today, and I didn't like what I saw. Easily the heaviest I've been, certainly the heaviest in several years. So I did some things. I prayed. So often when we start things, when I start things, I forget to let God in. He wants to be there for us.
- [Starting Over For Real and Jumping Into the Deep End](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2023/02/01/starting-over-for-real-and-jumping-into-the-deep-end/) - So today I went to Rocky's with my sparring partner and friend Mitch for the first time in well over a year. I've been so busy taking care of Mom over the last year that I really haven't been taking very good care of myself. I know that she hated being that kind of disruption
- [Start Again!](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/2022/11/04/start-again/) - Welcome to my boxing and fitness blog. The last year has been a lot of family illness, so the caregiver hasn’t been taking care of himself at all. So it’s time to start again. I’m setting up this blog to give accountability to myself and to share my journey with others. If you want to

- [About Me...](https://blog.patmulcahy.com/about/) - One of my all-time favorite Scripture quotes is summed up in the Latin phrase, Caritas Christi urget nos… “For the love of Christ impels us, once we have come to the conviction that one died for all; therefore, all have died. He indeed died for all, so that those who live might no longer live
