Don't Lose Gains

No nationwide gym membership. No workout room at your summer cabin. No DVD player to do your T25 or P90x. NO EXCUSES!
     If you are dedicated to a healthy lifestyle, your workout room can be anywhere you look. You didn't work hard every day to lose the progress you have made just because of a summer vacation.
      Yesterday I took a 4-5 mile run to the beach. Today I asked my uncle (in law) Peter where was a good place to run to. He sent me on a mile an a half adventure to a place I had never been.
      There was an awesome staircase in the woods with a gorgeous view of the water. There were 60 stairs with a landing midway which became my pushup platform. I did ten sets and then climbed a tree. I know I'm almost 30, and climbing trees is for kids, but sometimes I can't help it! The beauty of this training adventure was that I was all alone. When by myself in the woods, that's when I feel the most at home.  It took me at least two and a half miles to get back home. Haha, so maybe I'm not good at directions...but I made it. Today's workout and adventure is in the books!  Now I'm excited to see where tomorrow's run may lead.
