I hate exercising, too, but I’ve found that if I listen to audiobooks while doing so, it’s much more tolerable. Actually, when it’s a book I’m really enjoying, it makes me almost look forward to working out. I also listen to audiobooks when I’m mowing the lawn and doing other tedious activities.

Hi Pimmy. I suppose we are getting older. One of the things we do for exercise is walking the dog every day. It is also a social event. But any exercise must be some improvement.

@Idlewild I love that idea! I never thought of using audiobooks to make exercising (or any boring task) more bearable. Maybe that’s the trick I’ve been missing! If I find a really good book, I might even forget I’m working out. Thanks for the tip. I’ll definitely give it a try.
@Besoeker Yes, I guess we really are getting older—but hopefully a bit wiser too!
Walking the dog sounds like a lovely routine, both for fitness and making connections.
I don’t have a dog at the moment, though. I guess I’ll have to walk myself instead, less barking, but still good cardio!
