Working out Minnesota Style

So if any of you have read any recent news headlines, you are well aware of the deep freeze happening here in good old MN.  Today's high is -4 with crazy cold wind chills...not the best weather for outdoor workouts or even leaving the house.

It has been hard getting good workouts in since I have been home since I am gym-less and it is sub-arctic here.  Yesterday, Mom and I bundled up and took Croix for a walk...needless to say we had to call Dad to come and pick Croix up so that we could finish our 3 miles.



Croix prefers blankets and heat to anything outside.


We also went shopping at Mall of America. Mom wanted to shop for some new jeans and the Silver store was having a sale so we couldn't say no and we also did four laps around the mall!

Today was even colder than yesterday, so we did what any suitable Minnesotan would do and legitimately walked up and down every single aisle of super Walmart.  Yep, I just admitted to that...we may have gotten some funny looks, but it was totally worth it!

I am very proud of us for not using the excuse of "it's too cold to work out".  We're Minnesotan's.  We CAN do anything.

STAY WARM!

Until tomorrow :)
