We are soft!!!!

This never fails to make me chuckle. We are so spoilt living in Australia, particularly on our temperate East Coast. We can enjoy the most beautiful weather all year round - and we have been completely spoilt (or rather, lulled into a false sense of security) with our weather of late - still enjoying 23-24 degree sunshine.

The trouble is, we forget that sometimes it rains, and needs to.
Sometimes it gets a little cold, as it needs to.
Sometimes it gets a little windy, or all of the above!

So the minute it does, we run back indoors claiming we can't possibly go outdoors to exercise.

All I have to say to that is, toughen up sweethearts! You won't shrink in the rain, nor will you melt. The wind won't snap freeze you, nor will the cold. And really, 8-9 degree mornings are NOT cold.

Not compared with this: (and THIS IS cold!)Canada bootcamp


PLUS - you will burn a heap more calories exercising when it's colder..... just think of how much harder your body as to work at heating itself let alone anything else! what more reasons do you need? :-) I guess you also have the added benefit of not sweating like crazy either.... see, now there's NO EXCUSES!
