Freecycle help get the blood pumping.

Those who know me will be aware of my personal commitment to reducing waste and to recycling and my involvement with my local Freecycle network.

Courtesy of a local freecycler I now have a natty exercise bike - a good one. It might not be all modern heart monitors and digital bleeps but it's got an amazing fly wheel and is really smooth to pedal.

This is wonderful as I have always fancied a new clothes horse. Ho ho ho. Seriously though. I am finding it increasingly difficult to get the exercise I need as I can only swim when C is at pre-school and as she has had extended illness and then the holidays that means I haven't been for nearly a month. The weather has made rollerblading (or any other outdoors activity for that matter) impossible so I have great hopes for the new clothes horse.

Happy New Year to you all and an extra special shout out to everyone who has started their own 'Shrink' this month - go for it!
