What’s the most fun way to exercise?
Sorry, same old chestnut, but it’s the only exercise for exercise’s sake I really enjoy.
Years ago I used to love my holidays, the towns in the UK were so different and unique that every step revealed something new. We walked miles on holidays.
Having been raised in south London I never really have barrier that much thought. We did have beautiful parks, and often went to the loveliest places for days out. The New Forest always comes to mind. We often went to Leaves Green in Kent. It was literally just a small area of grass, yet it was so pretty, families were there picnicking and children playing. Spent hours running after a ball there.
Perhaps living in suburbia made you appreciate the smallest piece of nature, but it didn’t connect you to nature in the way living amongst it does. As such a long nature walk isn’t my thing unless I have a camera.
One of my best walks ever was a straight 11 hours with a few breaks to rehydrate in Paris. It was blisteringly hot, weather I hate, but Paris just drew me forward. We were in our very from 9 am to 10.00 pm.
I also enjoyed Italy but we did a lot of tours so the exercise was limited between wows! The Vatican! Sorrento! Not much walking in Monte Casino, but wow. The Amalfi drive! Beyond wow.
Sedona Arizona – why sit down!
The thing with most exercise is it bores me, but walking somewhere interesting where there is a lot to see and do, I can accidentally exercise that way for days on end!
Embrace the joy!
