Starting the New Year Right with Wike.

Christmas came a little early for Nathan thanks to Wike – the Walk and Bike Company!

Nathan is now a teenager and it’s been several years since he outgrew our old jogging stroller. I really missed taking him out for jogs. He is able to walk but he doesn’t like to walk long distances, especially in the Florida heat. I needed to get back out in the sun and fresh air. We’ve been in-doors a little too much these past two years.

I’ve been listening to Podcasts with Dr. Mark Hyman and Dr. David Perlmutter talking about the scientific evidence that walking out in nature can have a profound effect on our health including reducing stress.

As a parent to a child with Angelman Syndrome I need all the help I can get in this area. Stress can lead to weight gain and multiple health conditions. My solution is to find fun ways to get active, take care of my health and reduce stress. I want to be out in the fresh air and sunshine. Walking on a treadmill in front of a tv doesn’t interest me or get my heart pumping like walking past a sign here in Florida that says “don’t feed the alligator’s”.

Most jogger’s are made for little kids. So I asked my friends on social media for suggestions. I received raving reviews for the Wike – jogger and bike trailer. Wike makes a Large and Extra Large Special Needs Trailer. Max capacity is 150lbs/68kg.  The families that love their Wike’s gave me permission to share these photo’s with you.

It’s an awesome gift for both of us. We get to be out in the fresh air and sunshine and I get some exercise. 

I’m so excited to start this new year and incorporate a healthier lifestyle with Nathan. I will keep you posted and if you’d like to share your photos of your Angel and Wike you can email them to contact@angelmantoday.com. We might feature your photos in the upcoming articles about our journey this year with our Wike.
