Much better than the gym; physical exercise down the allotment also brings these rewards as well as a healthy glow and an endorphin rush. I didn’t bring the weeds home!
Why aren’t we exercising?
Exercise has become something we have to make time for rather than something that’s just a normal part of everyday life, e.g. cycling is a lycra-clad extreme sport rather than a mode of transport. Or even worse, it’s something we look at rather than participate in. When people ask ‘what sport do you like?’ they usually mean what do you watch on TV. Passivity has become the norm.
For a lucky few, like Lord Coe, sport is their job, it keeps them occupied and healthy at the same time. Crucially they get paid for it too.
Writing about it too, is avoidance. For me, it’s lunchtime at the moment and I’ll be digging my allotment later.

This Is Why We’re Unhealthy
Not comfortable viewing – and obviously many people eat more than average, sit more than average and walk a lot less than average.
