yeah, I'm not in good shape. I'm not overweight or anything, but I'm certainly not toned. I used to be in good shape when I would bike all the time and do some jogging, but long gone are those days...

I actually haven't biked since 2018 despite my username. I just had no place to put my bike in my apartment, but now that I have a garage, I can actually bring my bike over and keep it in the garage. I just haven't done that yet because, well, we were still kinda getting snow up until recently and I didn't feel like getting it. (I just got the personal garage back in January.) I also impulsively bought a car in 2017 and no longer have a bike mount/rack... because I had an SUV and I put the bike rack in the tow hitch. my current car is a sedan. but you did remind me to bring it, so thanks. (it's not exactly an "expensive" bike -- it was $400 -- but some of the expensive bikes are $2000-5000. I mean, obviously $400 is a lot of money, but not like those elite bikes.)

if I'm honest... walking IS kinda difficult though depending on your pace and if you're going uphill or not. heck, even going downhill can be challenging if the hill is really steep (because you obviously don't want to fall flat on your face). and of course, everyone has a different physiology. I actually even think that power walking can be more intense than jogging in some cases.
