Where did my summer go?

I had big plans for this summer and now it's almost over! I've been hearing that a lot lately and I too had big plans. I am proud to say that some were accomplished and some were put aside for future use when I could make a better go of them but my summer is also slipping away.

Did your summer plans include getting more active and creating a better lifestyle for yourself? Don't worry there's still time! Start with small changes, trade in the $5 super latte extra foam jumbo coffee drink for a plain old cup of coffee, your wallet will thank you as well as your waistline. Or just drink water.... water is wonderful :) Take the stairs, park in the back of the parking lot, there are hundreds of little things you can do throughout your day to make changes and I'm sure most people know that. It's just a matter of doing them.

Now is your chance, before the nice warm weather turns to snow and darkness, get in a walk a week or a walk a day! Go play outside with the dog or your kids.

For those of you who are looking for a little extra help getting that walk in; join myself and others Friday afternoons to take a little walk around the Eau Claire trails and get some movement going! (Yes, this was one of the things I accomplished creating this summer - Yea!!!) If you wanna move with me send me an e-mail for the time and location we'll be starting at.

Enjoy the day!!
