If cold weather is forcing you to move your workout inside, you might want to investigate the fun to be had while indoor-rock climbing. There are tons of rock-climbing gyms with artificial structures made to look and feel like real walls of rock. Learning to rock climb indoors in a safe and controlled environment is a great introduction to the sport if you're looking to rock climb outdoors someday.
Want to try rock climbing but can't bear the summer heat? (Before it was the cold weather that moved you inside, now it may also be the hot weather.)
Then this weekend, grab a partner (your husband, your best friend, etc) and head over to an indoor rock climbing wall/center. It's a great thing to do with someone else because rock climbing typically requires having at least two people, a belayer (the person holding the rope at the bottom) and a climber (the person climbing) to participate. 
Are you not really the adventurous type? Oftentimes we shy away from new, riskier things because we just don't have the support that we need.
Women that Rock is a grassroots organization that aims to share skills and tools that will enable participating climbers to become safer partners and more confident leaders, to create awareness & cultivate the capability to identify & manage the inherent risks in climbing, to raise money for and awareness of access and safety issues, to create a group for women to talk to each other about climbing.
