So The Man and I decide that we must do something to alter our sedentary lifestyle. We seem to be way too content to sit on the couch everyday - each of us making the claim that "walking the dogs" constitutes exercise.
It was finally time to dust off those brand new bikes (read that:"9 yr old bikes") and make a commitment to getting some real exercise. First in order: take the bikes to the shop for a "tune up" (read that: "a good dusting off and oiling of the gears"). I succumbed to Mr. Wonderful insistence that we use Bike Helmets as well. Good friends/neighbors gave us a bike rack for the back of our Jeep. I am happy to say that we are now totally enjoying bike riding. We are fortunate to have some wonderful trails close-by. Each time we go out, we ride a little longer and a little further. We do try to go at least 4 times a week.
It is so nice to be able to do something together that does not involve FOOD or spending money! We will never win any marathons, but we always come back from the rides happy. So glad that after nearly 35 yrs of marriage, we can still enjoy new adventures together.
