You are comparing doing vs playing. In some languages there are two words for sport. One for game/competition and one for physical activity. Obviously there is physical activity in game but my point is: do not try to find game when there is not one.
Anyway I have other anecdote. I've played sports since childhood but got bored with repetitive games and stayed with endurance sports because they offered excitement from new environments. It was not something I discovered as an adult. Running was basically second thing I did after I had learned walking.
There is obviously expensive gear with all those bikes/skis etc. But running really is low-hanging fruit of sports. Just tie your shoes, open the doors and you can just start.
