just wondering what i big kid (like me) can do in the country to exercise.
Answer
Go for small walks each day, like 10 minutes or so...get in the habit of doing it everyday. But just start out with small things at first, so you don't get discouraged, and on top of that it will help you to stay commited. When you start to get bored of routine, search an atlas, or map to find parks, game preserves, or any walking trails to make things more interesting ( I would know, I live in Maine lol)...Also make sure it's something you enjoy, it doesn't feel like exercise when your having fun. If you really feel up to it, look up some nearby mountains and get a friend (animal, or person) to go for a hike with you, I cannot stress how rewarding it is once you're at the top.
Other activities:
Summer: swimming, hiking, walking, running, playing outside with kids, biking, golf or any sport.
winter: skiing, snowshoeing, walking, SHOVELING snow, sledding downhill (then climbing back up).

How long will a ride through Fossil Rim take?

I am planning on going to Fossil Rim wildlife center near Glen Rose (TX) with family and friends.. How long will the whole ride take?
Answer
Family Tour
OK gang, this is for that leisurely tour with the kids. Or, that leisurely tour without the kids. We'll take you to the rhinos, cheetahs, and wolves without making you work too hard along the way. Start out with a little pavement (there is one big hill, but it's early in the tour and you can do it). Then we'll turn off the road and pedal through a nice grassy pasture for about 2 miles until we come to Hamstring Hill. Don't be frightened by this, we're already at the top. We'll leave our bikes here and walk down into the valley to see all the animals. After about an hour in the animal area, we'll hike back out and ride our bikes back to the cars. This tour is perfect for children 6 years and older, or for the younger kids who are in trailers or bike seats. Plus, it's a great tour for you if you enjoy the outdoors and animals, but aren't a really experienced off road bicyclist. And, you can join us with a true mountain bike, or a hybrid, since there isn't any technical rocky stuff. Wear your helmet and get ready to see some of the most beautiful country in Texas.
Moonlight Tour
You'll be blown away by riding at night and seeing animals in the twilight. We'll begin this tour early enough to enjoy a sunset from the top of Hamstring Hill. From here we'll hike into the Intensive Management Area to see the animals just as darkness falls on Fossil Rim. After we've seen all the animals (and maybe even heard some howling by the wolves or the wild coyotes) we hike back up Hamstring Hill and ride our bikesâunder the moonlightâback to our cars. This tour is also perfect for everybody. Kids, older folks, Hammerdogs and novices will all love this ride.
