I have been threatening to ride my bike for several weeks. But laziness tends to kick in, and I wind up doing a few curls and nothing more.
Today, I got my bike down to the curb, and later got a few "laps" in around my apartment complex.
I left my bike on the curb, and may do a few more laps before the day is done.
Did you get some decent exercise in today?

I used to take a brisk walk and a bike ride every day. Laziness set in, after falling because of Kobe's antics. Now, my dog has been gone for five months, I still haven't taken even one short walk! Shame on me

I want to say so. The wind made playing Pokemon Go a lot harder than usual. My arms were on fire from it.

@kaylachan Precisely. I always keep a marker with me to draw mustaches on them.

@TheHorse I usually get around 5 miles in. The house is laid out in a way that I can do laps. So I can get moving a little

I have a bad right knee that tends to go out on me so best I do is walking, Inside and outside to stretch my legs but have to be careful so I won't fall.

@TheHorse I am a bit worried about even trying cycling I have had the displeasure of having my knee go out and hitting the placement smack and I do not want to have a cycle accident

@RasmaSandra I haven't had any problems with cycling. One wipeout on a sandy corner, but no injuries worth talking about.

@LindaOHio A walking stick would look "cooler"! And you can whap people with it if they don't get out of your way.

I used to have a bike, I really loved cycling, it got me around much faster than walking. Eventually I got a car but I still used my bike to get to work. My work required visiting people and I realised one day that I had more time doing that if I didn't have to reckon on the time taken to cycle from one place to another. It was also less tiring. So I reluctantly gave up. I live in a hilly district now so cycling would be quite out of the question these days.

I do envy you now. I do 30-min core exercises every morning now. I used to bike 30 kilometers everyday from home to school and back. Not anymore after starting a family. I used to swim 2k non-stop at least once a week, but that was before the pandemic lockdowns. Nowadays, I manage to swim only at times when the lockdowns are lifted or lenient.
