My friends think I'm nuts because I think my exercise is fun and they can't imagine how getting up at 5AM and running in the pitch dark by starlight in 40 degree temps is enjoyable. I can now tell them that I know of someone who calls pushing a jeep "fun." Having spent a lot of time helping DH push the 1960 CJ5 around I just can't make the "fun" connection ![]() Jenn |
