New Year’s Resolution: Drink More Water

As we adventure into the New Year, make staying hydrated a top priority! Protect your health at the same time by  ensuring your water is purified. Incorporate more water into your routine and see how this little habit can change your year. Get outside and drink more water!

Get Outside and Drink More Water

Two things that go hand-in-hand: drinking more water and getting outside. Whether it’s a morning walk, a hike in the mountains, or spending time in the park, being outside helps you to connect with nature and makes you more energized. Below are some ideas for how to get outside more in the new year:

• Running: If you’re wanting to pick up running in the new year, make sure to start with reasonable goals. Begin with a goal you know you can achieve, like working up to running a 5K or running a trail you like instead of walking it. 
• Backpacking: Whether you went backpacking a few times last year or this is your first time to go, set a reasonable goal for yourself with the number of trips you want to take this year. If you’re a beginner, start out easy with a quick weekend backpacking trip and work your way up. If you enjoy backpacking and have been on several trips, try to take one more than you did last year!
• Join an Outdoor Club: If you need more adventurous friends and people to help motivate you to get outside more, joining an outdoor club in your city is the perfect choice! Look for a club that is specific to what you’re interested in and have fun!
• Adventure Dates: Is your partner looking to get outside as well? Make it a weekly date idea! Sit down with your partner and map out different activities for you both to do throughout the year. 
• Plan a Staycation: A great small step to take to get outside more is to explore the city you currently live in. Explore new trails, look up a new park, or go kayaking; there are so many things to do close to where you are. 
• Create a Family Bucket List: Motivate your entire family to get involved by bringing them into the process. Have each person come up with a few ideas for adventures to complete throughout the year. This is a great way to spend time together and create healthy habits. 
• Seasonal Scavenger Hunt: Scavenger hunts bring an element of fun to getting outside, making the whole family want to get involved. Make sure to snap photos as you go!
• Camping: A great way to get outdoors more is to take camping trips. Whether you’re solo or with your family, you’re guaranteed to have a good time. You can go mountain biking, get on the water, or just enjoy the trails. The possibilities are endless!
