I am living in Canada. It's winter and it is wet. Going outside means a 5 min ritual of changing into outside clothes (because it is wet) and wearing boots, walking and doing the reverse 5 min ritual.
I love walking but very annoying these days.
- FullyFunctional 4y agoI got a forcing-function: the stereotypical pandemic dog. If he doesn’t get his walk, he will do his business in the house. I literally just came back soaked from my daily one hour walk (I was too optimistic about the weather).

- theoa 4y agoI live in a retirement community. Nowadays since I can no longer swim (see reply here elsewhere) I pace (very slowly) up and down a long hall. I feel like a monk walking a cloister.
- nine_k 4y agoGone are the days when "5 minutes" was an epitome of something negligibly short! More seriously, the ritual is a key part for some, it changes the focus. (But may be a nuisance for others, of course.)
- tasuki 4y agoI have a child. Going for a walk involves half an hour of negotiations. Feel better about your five minutes?
- watwut 4y agoYou literally argue with child half an hour daily or the the child never leave the house? You don't take the child to playground or just to move about?
- tasuki 4y agoIt is a small child. Dressing up either involves a lot of screaming or takes at least half an hour. > You don't take the child to playground or just to move about? Not sure where you got that idea. I do.
- nicbou 4y agoWinter walks are nice though! I used to throw my coat in the dryer to make it warm before I left. Now I live in a mercifully warmer place.
