My 2 cents (as a former gymnast and now omnivorously active person) is that many people see exercise as a chore or something they have to do. If you want to have the benefits of exercise in your life, you have to find a way to enjoy it. If running isn't for you, try a dance class. Try biking, or hiking, or Starting Strength, or one of those at home videos by Jillian Michaels or yoga or boxing. Keep trying things until you find something you actually like. Try going with friends, or joining a run club. As Harvard professor of Public Health Frank Hu said: "The single thing that comes close to a magic bullet, in terms of its strong and universal benefits, is exercise." In my view, there is such value in being physically fit that it is absolutely worth trying every possible thing until you get to something you genuinely like.
