Exercise and common cold

Based on information from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, people who exercise at least 5 days a week have 43% less respiratory infections than those who only exercise 1 day a week.  I think this is a good reminder to all of us to get out there and exercise, especially during those winter months.  Grab some warm clothing and non-skid boots and go for a walk, enjoy the beautiful glistening trees and the fresh air.  It also makes us feel better mentally when we can get out of the house during those long winter months, I think.
