The leaves are turning red and the air is cooling. The time to get in the last bit of summer fun is now. Frisbee players, bicycle riders and runners are out in full force.

The gym is nice but enjoying the weather while getting your fill of fitness fun is half of the experience. Getting out there and enjoying the weather can also be a confidence booster in my opinion for continuing your activity and not ending prematurely due to repetitive boredoms.

The sounds of the birds, the feel of the wind and the sun all make shooting hoops or running that much better. Opposed to doing it indoors with stagnant air and the sound of scuffing feet. The sun in the sky is cheering you on, the wind is helping you move.

So in a nut shell, before the leaves hit the ground followed by the snow and there is no where else to go but the gym, enjoy the closing days of good weather. Run a lap around campus with a friend, take the old bike out or toss a Frisbee or a ball on the quad. I say this because in a month or two, you’ll miss it. And well all with our cheerleaders outside were back again.
