I do pilates 3x a week in the am. Walk for 1/2 an hour afternoon during the week also walk every evening with my husband and dog for 45 mins. Do eliptical every 2nd day for 15 mins as well. I find the more I can do the more I feel better and it keeps my mind occupied instead of thinking about IBS/UC. Sue

I get to the gym 3 times a week for weights, run twice a week about 6 km after work, all of which keeps me fit for sailing. Just did a 68 km marathon sailing race in a high performance sailing dinghy last weekend (damn long way to be hanging out over the side of a boat), came 4th YAY, next day it blew even harder and we would have won it!

I miss sailing, but living in MI there isn't much chance.. I grew up with grandparents who owned a racing yacht that we all got to sail and i taught windsurfing summers in high school and colleges of SC coast.... damn I miss those days on the water.. its the oen thing that might get me to move back south!

Hi,
I do an hour of Yoga at a class twice a week and go to the gym/swimming when I can be bothered!
I also love walking and can't wait till the dog is old enough to go out so we can have lots of adventures together!

...living an hour from the sea! I'd go nuts living in the midle of the US...kinda makes me feel claustrophobic.
I can't wait to introduce Archie to sailing.  My parents' boat is going in the water in 2 1/2 weeks!

there is a river nearby and I can drop a kayak into it at a moments notice.. I have an ocean kayak, but unless I go near the rapids I am fine in it.. but I can't do it in winter and we have the great lakes not too far and smaller lakes closer...

I was just thinking that you weren't to far from the lakes in Michigan, we in Australia don't have much in the way of lakes being one of the driest continents. I have sailed since a boy learning in my dads trailer yacht, then have been sailing a Sharpie class boat for about 12 years now. Very fast and exciting, 20-25knots under spinnaker. I have also done some ocean racing in recent years, a 1200 miler to the Solomon Islands, an 800 to Noumea, and some local races up and down the coast. The challenges are different, but i love it all, and its a great healthy thing for kids to learn. Sailing is suffering from lack of support from media and public alike over here at the moment, very dissapointing.
cheers

its not supported as well here in the states either as I wish it was... we have the lakes.. about 3-4 hours to get to the ones that are worth sailing on even with a small boat though, so I don't actually get to sail... but I do get to kayak some, and I try to sail when we get to make a trip somewhere with water and the chance to do it.. but its not as often as I'd like at times... ah well.. we all make choices..its the biggest drawback to living here, but we have so many other positives, including both being employed and his family being nearby....
