I know that the weather was often a handy excuse for not exercising. Too cold, too wet, too snowy, too hot, too humid. Really dedicated athletes find a way to work out anyway. Sometimes that means staying home with a workout DVD or going to the gym. But sometimes it actually means finding a way to do a little something outside. Maybe you get a good set of layers so you are warm enough when you start out on your walk (or jog or ride) but can shed layers as you warm up. Sometimes it means changing your path to sidewalks that are kept cleared, or going a shorter distance (so you get moving at least some). Take a shot at changing how you think about the weather and exercise. Get outside your comfort zone, even if it's just a little bit.
As for me, I am going out for a short bike ride. The main roads are clear enough and the temperature is a balmy (!) 30 degrees. I will take the 3-mile loop I usually run. See you out there!
