Working Out In the Weather

How do you get work outs in when it's June and still raining?

This last weekend my husband, daughter and I went to the beach. The weather was spectacular! We played in the sand, looked for shells, rode our bikes and walked all over the place. Getting exercise in was super easy because the sun was shining and the great outdoors provided a beautiful natural gym. When we got home on Monday, the weather was still fairly good and the sun was out. We did yard work, pulled weeds, edged, pruned and chased our one year old.

Then Tuesday came.... and rain. And Wednesday came and more rain. See the pattern?

I hate rain. I know I live in the wrong state for hating rain, but Washington is home, so what do we do? I work out indoors at C&C Studio and try to take advantage of indoor classes, but then I will go outside at a moments notice if the sun is shining! A friend and I walk Lakeland Hill and there are hikes I want to take. I walk with my daughter, pushing her stroller and we ride our bikes. Thank goodness for gyms and indoor exercise because I would probably be a sloth!

What do you all do to work out in the Washington drizzle? There is very little I will do outside unless the sun is shining down, so I'm excited to hear about everything everyone else does.
