Went to see my daughter perform in The Nutcracker being performed by her dance studio. Went up the long flight of stairs in the old theater to the balcony, and was hardly out of breath when we got to our seats! And was then able to sit through the show without my neck and upper back hurting from the effort of holding my own head up.
This is fun.
