We are a small town. No pool or community resource available here. And beyond that, I am on peritoneal dialysis and cannot spend time in a pool like you do.

So glad you have found a method for you! I like perusing stores when a shopping is needed, using a cart to help stabilize me. But whenever my energy permits, and weather cooperates, a walk outside refuels me like nothing else can.

We certainly all need to do whatever is possible for our own situation. During covid, I walked at least one mile a day in my condo - not the hallways which don’t have any windows, but within my own unit. Moving any obstructions that might slow me down was necessary but it worked for me.
