Water, Water Everywhere

It's raining today. I woke up during the night and heard the patter of rain on the roof. I love that sound. This morning was the first day of school and I felt a little sorry for the hordes of little kids and parents jockeying for parking places on our street and juggling with umbrellas, brand new back packs, and keyed up kids. The rain continues--not a downpour, but steady. It's a good day to curl up with a book, a blanket and a cup of tea. I'm trying to resist that, though, and get myself moving. Not a great day for running or biking.

We went on a great hike in Great Falls yesterday with some friends and then had a gourmet, fairly WW, picnic lunch. I stayed within my weekly allowed extra points, but evidently overdid the salt. I was up two pounds this morning and my WI is tomorrow. Today has to include some aerobic activity, my regular Tuesday gym session and LOTS of water. I need that water inside me, not outside on the grass and pavement. So, for now, I'm nixing the book, blanket, and tea option and am going to go find one of my dusty Sweating to the Oldies DVDs and a giant mug of ice water.

How do you exercise when it's raining?
