how lazy are we as a society?
just pondering this one because I think we're really going to shit as far as exercise n whatnot goes.
I walked home from a gig last night which was about 4 miles roughly and my bro was really surprised but I mean 4 miles isn't exactly alot when you think about it is it? To coin an old chestnut, back in the day my great grandfather would walk to Ibrox from around here to see rangers playing and it's alot more than 4 miles I'll tell you, probably hitting close to 15 each way and no one thought anything of it because pretty much everyone did it if they supported Rangers. Now that would be unheard of, myself included...
I refuse to drive places I can walk easilly enough n only take the car to the gym cos a walk home up-hill on a warm day when you just want to dive in a shower and have just spent an hour plus in there working out is a pain in the arse.
I suppose half of this has to do with my bro's comment and watching michelle mcmanus on telly there. she's a pretty extreme example but someone saying: it's not that i mind walking, I just don't want to, i dont see the point in it... christ is it that much of a burden?
are we just getting lazy?
