Tl;Dr I want to be more active, especially outdoor acitivities. But my resources and support are limited, so I'm going at it alone and basically have an apartment front yard and some busted sidewalks. I walk. What else can I do?
I live in a small town in a valley in the mountains in Wyoming, accessible by a single highway. It takes about 30 minutes to walk from one end of the park to the other, and then there's nowhere elae to walk cause it's all highway and fenced-off farm land. We have a lot of sidewalks, but they're in rough shape. We have one park, but it's 50% lake, 25% playgrounds, 25% community garden. I jave access to a lot of great mountain climbing and hikes, but because I don't have a car, I only get to go when my friends want to, and they're not outdoorsy or active folks. And admittedly, I'm really not up for making new active outdoorsy friends.
Regardless, I really want to be more active and spend more time outside! Right now I do a lot of walking, but it's gotten pretty repetitive in such a small space. I want to switch to running, but that doesn't fix the problem of repetitive routes, and our sidewalks are in such rough shape I'm apprehensive to run on them.
So I'm looking for other things I can do alone basically in the front yard of my apartment! I know it's kind of a tall order, but I really appreciate any help y'all can give! I lost 65 pounds and then gained 15 back since about march, after a dramatic experience that triggered some emotional eating and, importantly, made it basically impossible for me to go back to my gym. I'd like to get back down to where I was, and a little further!
Thank you!
