Workouts outside or in the home are stress-free in terms of COVID. By contrast, breathing hard--next to unmasked sweaty and potentially infected strangers in the gym? Not me. No matter how cold or inclement the weather, being outdoors to me is a blessing.

Why do some feel it impossible to consider doing so outside the gym? (yes, I recognize some may be trying to support gym owners, but somehow I doubt that is the majority).
