Walking Riding on Sunshine

Am I the only one that feels like it is SO much easier to be active and fit when the weather is nice? These cloudy, rainy, dreary, gray days have put a real damper on my activity and energy level, leaving me more inclined to want to nap than to exercise.

But not today! Today the clouds (finally) parted!

The sun peeked through for a nice chunk of time, so the hubby and I quickly rallied our troops and headed outdoors! I pulled little H. in the bike trailer while my husband pushed little N. in the stroller---and roller bladed---and ran the dog---all at the same time. Al thinks that we rode/bladed about 2.5 miles. This is quite a feat considering I haven't ridden a bike in years. (And trust me, my groin is currently reminding me of that. Ouch!)

My heart was pumping, my breathing was labored, and I was feeling the burn! It was great! More sunny days like this and I'll be looking like Jillian in no time. :o)

Hope YOU caught a little glimmer of sunshine this week!
