Hello! I am from a small town in North Dakota and live on a beef ranch and small grain farm. Are there other people out there that are also trying to get healthy, but are miles from a gym!

    Welcome :)

    I live on a farm (right now we just have cows & chickens, but had horses, pigs, ducks & geese in the past)...in a small town in CT...

    I am relatively close to my gym (only 10 min or so away)...so the travel isn't too bad...

    But, YES, I am here trying to lose 80-100 lbs!

    I also live in a rural place and don't exercise at a gym!
    I love to run, cycle, hike, and walk my dog.
    I've also used my Wii and exercised using the Wii Active game....which I love!

    Exercising and getting healthy is definitely possible without the use of a gym membership....you just have to be resourceful.

    hi there :) I'm semi-rural (20 min away from gym/stores, etc) however its a very *seasonally busy* tourist area so its kinda the best of both worlds (and a little of the worst of both worlds LOL). I have an organic veggie patch that i love tending to, but its certainly not a farm :) ... Anyhoooo, I just wanted to welcome you to MFP and wish you well on your journey!
