Exercise in New York

Well, I can check off the list the state of New York for where I have exercised.  Some of the days I stayed inside as the crowds were too big outside, and it made for moving around very slow.  The hotel was facing Time Square, so you got to exercise on the equipment looking out giant windows at Time Square, and watching all of the billboards, lights, and people outside.  It made the exercise time go very fast.  We still did lots of walking as well, but you have to be flexible enough to decide when you are going to exercise, and where, and be safe at the same time.  Here is an image of the exercise room and the windows for the view.   Have a good weekend, and enjoy the great weather, and the holiday!

New York Trip

The New York trip was definitely an eye opener!  Lots of people.  The only grass I saw was here at Central Park…full of a lot of people relaxing, walking, enjoying the day.  The one thing about where we were at, and Time Square, the easiest way to get a round was to WALK!  We did lots of walking.  Even the tour guides said that people in New York do a lot of walking, because of the traffic, crowds, this is one of the easier ways to get around…that and the subway!  Anyway, I logged miles and miles each day in the evenings out walking.  Now we have warm weather here as well…just would be nice if we did not get all of it in one day.  Have a good rest of the week.

Off to New York!

Getting ready to head to New York for a few days for a conference.  I have never been to New York City.  I will get my first hand look at Time Square above, and see what I can do for going out walking, running while there.  My kids have all been there for a school trip…now I get to go.  Looking forward to a new adventure.  I will take lots of pictures and give you a tour when I get back.  Have a good weekend!

Safety While Exercising

A good friend of ours bought a gift card from Road ID.com to allow us to buy identification wrist bands to wear when we are out running or biking as a means of providing vital information in case of an emergency.  I whited out our cell numbers on here for privacy of having it on the blog site.  But these wrist bands provide important information that could some day be vital for us.

These are a good way of helping to provide information that could be critical under those circumstances.  They also are good to wear when traveling, or even to wear on a regular basis daily.  These are great not only for your own safety and benefit, but for those important to you.  Thank you Cory Ann for making us aware, and purchasing these wrist ID bands for us.  Get one for yourself at www.RoadID.com.

Happy Fathers Day!

My mom and dad came for the weekend, and of course my dad has to have some work to do.  Here he is with Sarah working in the garden.  Always active, and on the move.  79 years old…rides his stationary bike 15 miles a day! 

 

I guess I know where I get my exercise habits from…the apple does not fall far from the tree!  It was a great weekend spending time with them.  You have taught me a lot over the years, and I appreciate all of it.  Happy Fathers Day Dad!  Happy Fathers Day to all you dads out there.  You deserve it!
