todays exercise was geocaching, what an awesome excuse to exercise my youngest LOVED IT!! and we actually found the treasure in the woods, we then tried to find one in a church but alas that will have to wait until another day. please have a look if you like www.geocaching.com you basically try to find a hidden package using gps on your phone or anything else that has gps i suppose and read the clues, which contains stuff and a little book that you sign and date, then click "found it" on the app and leave a message, its great

Thankyou @copepod what an awesome idea, we will be geocaching our head off at the weekends, exercise for all of us :)

That sounds like awesome fun! Do you do it with lots of people? Are paintball guns involved?:)
