Nah, I hate them too. The only form of exercise I actually seem to enjoy is dancing actually. But unfortunately as an adult, I have a harder time with it. I found a dance studio last year that catered to adult students. But the drive after work was just so far (30+ minutes) and I was so wiped from work that I just found it not a great experience (despite enjoying the workout itself) so I stopped. If there was a dance studio down the street from me that did adult classes, I'd be on board.

I continue running because it's so easy to fit it in before work and easier to measure my metrics as opposed to some of these other forms of exercise. The park is a 5 min drive from me.

It's like...yeah I could bike before work instead, but I don't have a way to transport my bike to the local park, so it wouldn't be as efficient of a bike ride waiting to cross busy intersections...not to mention significantly more dangerous with how fast the traffic goes (it's a 45mph road, but cars like to go above 60mph and somehow don't get pulled over by the police...).

I was biking a bit last year, but running just works out better for my particular scenario.

I do have access to a swimming pool, but I don't have the technique and just find it so monitonous. At least with running in the park, I get to look at the trees and birds and other runners.
