For this USPS employee, the commute is brrrâ¦isk
BAR HARBOR â U.S. Postal Service employee Jeremy Averill lives with his wife and four children on Hadley Point. From there, he paddles to work on his surfboard in the dead of winter.
The pandemic has made conventional exercising even more difficult, so Averill started riding his bike throughout the summer and fall to stay in shape.
Back in January, Averill began scrambling for a winter fitness routine and found a solution based on his favorite pastime: surfing.
âBasically, I thought, why not paddle my surfboard to work?â Averill said.
When he lived in the greater San Diego area, he worked at a research facility, much like The Jackson Laboratory, in a community called Torrey Pines. During his spare time, he would often visit Blackâs Beach in La Jolla, Calif., an area with a lot of cliffs and waves, where he learned the basics of surfing.
