Micro Adventure – Rowing

Micro-adventure!!! After a good bike ride this morning we decided a little more exercise was needed, so I ended up trying my hand at rowing for the first time! It’s always great to get outside and try something new and it put a smile on my face despite the aching arms. Happy Days!

Walking In A Winter Wonderland

Walking is one of my favourite forms of exercise. As much as I love running and cycling, a really good walk can make you feel just as well exercised Walking also allows you to absorb more. Drink in the views, read information signs and stop (regularly!) to check you are on the right path.
