Fun Family Fall Fitness Ideas

I felt inspired to write about some fun family Fall fitness ideas when we went exploring a new trail over the weekend. Fall has officially arrived here in Connecticut with the gorgeous Fall colors on the trees and the crisp cool air. For those who know me, Fall is my favorite season of the year.

I love Fall because it’s neither hot or cold, the perfect weather for outdoors lovers like my family. My family and I enjoy outdoors activities together and we do not let the crisp cool Fall air stop us. Here are some fun family Fall fitness ideas to inspire you to stay fit together.

Hit The Trail

That’s one of our family’s favorite thing to do. We heard about a new trail and decided to go explore on a crisp Saturday morning. Having our youngest daughter in tow, we came ready with the jogger, water bottles and our favorite on the go protein bar. The trail was over 2 miles long so we challenged each other to run the whole way through. We rewarded ourselves by taking a break and enjoy the gorgeous New England Fall.

Play some ball

Whether it’s soccer, baseball, football or any other kind of ball, adapt any kind of outdoor games to include some ball. We are soccer lovers so running around with the soccer ball is one way we enjoy getting some fun family Fall fitness together.

Rake and Jump

Our girls are such big helpers and boy do they love raking leaves in the Fall until we found out the real reason behind it. It’s really the sweet reward of jumping into the pile of leaves. I am all for that and encourage this fun family Fall fitness idea any chance I get.

Hubby and I are firm believers that a family that works out together, stays fit together and we do our best to be creative in the Fall and Winter time in order to stay on target on our fit life journey. There is no better place I’d rather be than enjoy the outdoors with my family. There is something so relaxing and peaceful about being in nature that we encourage our family to get at least 30 minutes outdoor activities every day, weather permitting.

I enjoy my daily jog now that my girls are all in school and right now in the Fall, it’s simply beautiful to witness the magic of Fall being unveiled every chance I go out and get moving. Happy WELLthy week to you and here’s to staying fit together one fun family Fall fitness idea at a time!
