Have not gone for a run in 2 1/2 months, and I physically feel better than I have in years. Perhaps running is just not good for my body at this age. That said, I miss the mental zone out time running provided me.
I don't make that old man groaning noise when I get up anymore. I also used to not be able to drive more than 90 minutes without intense pain at the back of my knee because of the driving position.
Once the pandemic became apparent, my wife said we should get a Peleton and I was a huge skeptic, knowing our long history of briefly used, then abandoned fitness equipment, but I gotta admit, I'm a convert. I've done a Peleton-related activity 89 out of the last 90 days.
The one Peloton day off we did a 9 mile hike. I do wish there were more Peloton rides where you were given the time and space to zone out while you peddle. Some instructors are less chatty and I tend to take them.
I never ride live so the Romper Room, "I see blah and blah..." stuff drives me crazy and makes me feel bad because people have like 17,000 rides and I just crested 100. Still, it's become a habit and I don't dread it, which is saying a lot for exercise.
