As I posted earlier, I am going to aim for working out more on the treadmill and walking the dog in March and not relying solely on the Wii to keep me exercising! I took my statement seriously, so much so that as soon as I was done posting, I went downstairs and hopped [...]

I am not generally a morning person, but I did have a great workout [...]
