What's your summer shape-up plan?

I rode bikes with my mom and my son on Sunday. We covered nearly seven miles on our trek around town, stopping at Walgreen's to accomplish an errand and then landing at my sister's house to rest and refuel. While there, I coaxed sis into running two miles with me. Then my mom and I rode back home -- Joey said "no way" to more riding and hung out with his cousins instead. Today, I walked. Tomorrow, I'll probably run some more.

I'm all about mixing it up this summer. Don't want things getting too stale. So I'm putting biking, running, walking, and back-yard exercising on my to-do list. There's also swimming. And jog-strollering. And the trusty gym. And kayaking at a local lake. There's a lot I can do this summer. And that's my plan -- to do a lot.

What's your summer shape-up plan? Give it some thought -- the season is just around the corner.
