4) Ride a bike …There are so many bike trails and beautiful places to ride. One local favorite is the Pioneer Trail up Hwy 20 by the 5-Mile House. BONC is Bicyclists of Nevada County has a wealth of resources.
5) Jump rope or Hula hoop – Sounds outdated, but it’s simple, cheap, and fun enough for the kids to join in. Just 30 minutes per day, 3 times per week will help trim those extra inches in the mid-section.
6) Snow Sports – Skiing, Snowboarding, and Snow Shoeing are plentiful and enjoyable in the Sierra Nevada’s (If we ever get some snow). Check out North Star or contact Nevada County Land Trust to see if there are snow shoeing activities coming up.

8) Quit Smoking – At least two of our colleagues have made the decision to put down the tobacco to promote a healthier lifestyle. Great job!
9) Spend Quality time with family and friends – Quality vs Quantity
- Cook and Eat meals together at home
