It’s time to spring into action and say goodbye to those cooped up hours at the gym getting no where on the treadmill or elliptical… literally! Although it may be hard to remember in the winter months, attending a school in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania has its benefits. This includes being next door neighbors with beautiful natural landscapes- I’m talking 100 plus likes on Instagram worthy views. Please, we all know if we are getting our Netflix watching butts out of bed to exercise, we are posting a picture to let everyone know about it.
