    For staying active, find something fun, so that you are looking forward to it!

    Have you ever taken dancing lessons?

    Played with a hula hoop lately?

    When was the last time you shot some hoops?

    How about a bike?

    Do you have access to a nice park that is a joy to stroll?

    Once I found things I like, more formal exercise became training so that I could do the fun stuff longer and better :)

    It also helps if you can find a partner. I don't think I would walk five miles very often on my own, but it is a great way to spend a morning with friends.

    Find something you LIKE to do as previous poster stated and it will all fall into place. If you are an "outdoorsy" person walking and hiking would probably be a good place to start.

    You can add me if you like. We are about the same age. I workout at a gym, not the outdoor type really. Mostly lift weights. My diary is open. Good Luck.
