When I first pitched the idea to the Coeur d’Alene Press of writing a series of articles to promote exercise and fitness options here in North Idaho, I had no idea where it would take me.
Over the last year of trying new things from hot yoga to jiu jitsu to figure skating, I’ve learned so much and had tons of fun along the way. While I haven’t covered every sport or activity (sorry to those still waiting for the article on open water swimming), I’ve written about most of the exercise options that are widely accessible here, which is why I’m concluding this series rather than resorting to writing about less accessible activities like water skiing for fitness or the workout you get from reeling in a marlin (much to my brother-in-law’s disappointment).
