It's often been said that the arrival of spring sees the roads and pavements etc littered with more than the usual amount of cyclists, runners and walkers, or 'Butterflies' as they are affectionately known.
Whilst I agree there are many people who only come out to play when the weather is fine (hence the butterfly tag) I do however tend to take a more pragmatic approach to this annual phenomenon.
There are folk for whom a particular health problem for example might not be conducive to exercising in the colder, darker, days of autumn/winter, or folks who don't have the time to get out and put in the miles, particularly in the darker evenings and after a day's graft.
So next time some of you hardy peeps pass or meet a 'butterfly', remember there might just be a reason you don't pass or meet them when the days aren't as pleasant........
