I walk more when I am in San Francisco (where I live) partially because I find the walks interesting. The same was true when I lived in DC.
When I am in an area where the walks lack flavor, I have to consciously get myself to move.
- wutbrodo 9y agoI had tried running over the years, mostly on treadmills, and never really done more than six miles: I decided I far preferred weightlifting (and sports). When I left my job and was gymless for a short period, I started running along the water in San Francisco after not having run for several years. Within two weeks, I was doing about ten miles. It's really hard to overestimate how much easier and more pleasant beautiful surroundings make walking and running. (Temperate weather 365 days a year doesn't hurt either).
- eru 9y agoRunning on a treadmill is extremely boring. Weight lifting is fun. Running barefoot outside---if you can either find a good place for it or the courage to declare your current place good enough, is a thing of joy. (My current home, London, basically has temperate weather all year round. It doesn't really get cold here.)
