I got my husband and I Trikkes (3 wheeled cambering machines - we have T8airs) for our 9th anniversaryand we Trikke 8 - 11 miles a day (in an hour to an hour and a half) along a river greenway. We love it and it is such a good workout and such fun! The calorie count is about the same as running but no impact.

For me working out is usually fun no matter what. I love taking long walks and seeing new scenes. It is even more fun if it is with someone so you can talk while you are walking. But my all time best hike ever was at an African game park. My sister, mom, and me spent 3 days at an African game park where you could take any trail you wanted to and see tons of animals. We went hiking 2 different times for about an hour each time. It was awesome to see all those animals up close and personal.

I walked on the Great Wall and a lot of other places in China and i guess that and Trekking in Nepal were both the most fun I ever had.

Well, I fell in love with my boxing personal trainer, so that was always fun. We still have a lot of fun exercising together. My favorite is when we do sprints. He takes off and leaves me laughing.

my 2-yo son jumping on me while I was doing callanetics on the floor, helping me with my not-sit-ups (they're not crunches, it's all stomach and no back, so hard to describe) -- it got harder for me to do them all of a sudden! Plus, bonus bonus, snuggle time with my cutie :)

WII Fit i from Nintendo is the a great way to get the excercise when you can't go to the gym or the weather is bad.. Hula Hoops from the "old days", a little dancing, a short run in place through the park. I look forward to my excercise time and am now up to 52 minutes. I actually do the Wii Fit everyday now as my main excercise with an outdoor walk.......

Belly dance class! The moves aren't as hard as I thought they would be. Better yet, the ladies who attend are adventurous with a great sense of adventure!
