You know you’re part of a Fit Fun family when the Christmas stockings are ski boots:
and the big present is a new (to us, via Craigslist) mountain bike for the 10-year-old and hand-me-down bikes for the 8- and 4-year-olds. It’s a coincidence that they’re all Specialized bikes:
And the Fit Fun Mom gets a new bike helmet, a white and silver one that was chosen not because it matches Bullet but because it is more visible (and thus safer) than the potentially more fashionable black one (thumbs up on that choice!):
The whole family got out for a bike ride today around the regional park. All three girls did well in spite of some challenges learning the new brakes and gears on the bigger bikes. We rode for over an hour by the time it was all done. I froze my fingers off in the 60 degree weather (wimp) and hopped in the hot tub when I got home. If you can’t have a white Christmas, you can have an (Angela White) Christmas in the jacuzzi.
Did you get anything fitness-related this holiday season? Happy Holidays!
I will head to a local running store soon with my mom to try on sports bras and winter leggings or pants. The gals I started running with here in YS are far more diehard than I, and I want so good gear to see how low the temp can be and I’ll still head out!

Ooh, have fun shopping! I am not a fan of shopping in general but shopping for running clothes, I love! I just got some Under Armour gear that’s great. The Seamless Essential Sports Bra is nice because I can pull it on without a fuss (unlike the Champion bras that I also like but only once they’re on). From the UA ColdGear line I like the Printed Fitted Longsleeve Crew for a base layer on top and the Compression Leggings on the bottom.

I got my first ever Christmas bonus and immediately committed some of it to a new pair of running shoes! I wrapped them and put them under the tree – needed to keep them special!

Awesome! I hope those new shoes take you far in 2013!
