It's really fun, we get to gently wake up together - and then we each drive (or run, in my case) to our offices and shower there. So nice to get to see a friend AND get your exercise done by 8am :)<br /><br />SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-25290400084428909812015-07-30T15:48:55.797-04:002015-07-30T15:48:55.797-04:00My husband and I enjoy playing frisbee golf.

My husband and I are about to visit Ireland for the first time....instead of doing a bus/car/group tour, we are hiking! The hiking company arranges B&Bs along our route and transports our bags, so we only have to carry daypacks. How awesome is that! With my Mom, I walk or bike.

What did we decide to do? We went for a run together! I usually run alone, so it was a nice change to have someone push me to keep going.

Everyone has loved it! Best part it getting to the middle of a lake and laying down on the board and just relaxing. If you don't have good balance, you can always paddle from a kneeling position until you are ready to stand up. Best advice, don't be afraid to fall in, but if you are going down, just jump in.
