Well that was an interesting afternoon. We went as a family for fish and chips in the park, then took a drive to some of the parks in neighbouring suburbs that have outdoor gyms and tried them out. Went to about 4 different spots; some had great equipment and some not, but I ended up cobbling together a fairly good workout and the kids got into it as well. It's not sustainable for me though, because these places are not convenient for me to get to. If the park near my house had an upgrade it could include equipment like that. But my exercise program for today was sorted anyway!
That's awesome! It's so fun checking out local parks.
