Erobic Exercise

My girlfriend and I are preparing to go on a hiking trip to Glacier National Park. We are going to do some camping along with staying at various small hotels and inns. I have been involved with doing some erobic exercise my whole life, either by walking or biking.

When I told my husband the plans to go on a hiking trip with my friend he laughed. He does not feel either one of us will last two days. I shared this with my friend, who is in shape, but does not consistently do any erobic exercise; she took this as a challenge.

She started looking into the best erobic exercise to prepare for our trip. I tried calling her during our lunch breaks, but could never find her at her desk because she was out walking. Two evenings a week she went to erobic exercise classes.

I went over to her apartment and found three DVD’s on various erobic exercise programs. The woman is obsessed. We discussed that when we first planned the trip we were going to hike for short distances each day to take in the beautiful surroundings, now she was looking at this as an erobic exercise challenge! She told me that I better start pushing myself more to build up my strength so that I would be able to keep up with her.

I went home and told my husband that I feared our relaxing; get in touch with nature trip is going to turn into a triathlon. He thinks this situation is quite humorous. At least my friend is improving her health with the erobic exercise, but I was really not planning on having to run up a hiking path.

I purchased an erobic exercise tape for my walkman and started pushing myself more. The first few walks I worked harder trying to deal with my frustrations towards my friend and husband, but as my strength improved and my lung capacity developed I found

As the date of our trip approaches we are getting more and more excited about going on our adventure. Both of us look and feel better since we increased our erobic exercise. If you hear about two women racing around the hiking trials in Glacier National Park, I am one of them.
