A. Walking/ jogging serveral miles outdoors for exercise/recreation but then going home and driving to the store to pick up a few groceries or driving to a resturant to pick up dinner.
B. Driving several miles to a gym so you can run on a treadmill or sit on an exercise bike?
Man, we should change our reality and turn it into something like the Conan movies. Technology and modern comforts have turned some of us into pathetic slobs. Whatever happened to running behind some fierce beast, knocking it down with a heavy, solid muscular stoned fist and dismembering the thing with our bare hands …dragging it into a cave where our 10 mistresses awaited to be fed? Oh, the good old days!
Lol! it has to be B for me.
If you have enough energy to run on a treadmill or exercise bike you are not doing enough work in the garden/community garden. Plant your veggies then go for a walk you will be too tired to go to the gym or even drive to the supermarket.
My wife and I just got back from a pub, we biked there ate lunch and biked back. I guess that would be answer C.
Definitely B.
For A, at least you can argue that it’s difficult to carry groceries and/or restaurant food when jogging, and even on a bike if you’ve got a large load. I don’t really understand driving to a gym just to use a treadmill or stationary bike. I guess if you live in a city where there aren’t any safe biking areas I could understand it.
B. it makes more sense to jog or bike for recreation when you’re not carrying heavy bags than to drive several miles to bike or run when you can do that outside
lo, that’s a good point. When put that way, both seem stupid. There can be some good reasons though – often there are too many groceries to carry, and many places in America are not pedestrian friendly enough to have an enjoyable run or bike ride.
But good point nonetheless.
