What a crappy month for exercise! The whole family has been laid low by a really nasty cold/cough, so no gym for me. We finally managed to have everyone feeling good for a nice walk on the obstacle trail on base, though. Fun, even though we were dodging fallen trees from the ice storm the whole time.
