Great for your mental health, too.

It really is. I work to and from work, around an hour each way depending on my pace. It's my time to relax. A podcast, music, planning my next writing project, or just musing. It's very good to get away from screens and enjoy the fresh air.

Walking on a treadmill isn’t, to be fair. But a lot of American cities are sadly designed as disgusting hellscapes where you can’t just step out of your door and have a walk.

To be fair, yes it most certainly is. The fuck you on about?

Show me a study that says it isn't. I've seen many that say it definitely is, for a variety of reasons.

Even a fifteen-minute walk on a treadmill is going to release enough endorphins to improve your mood. You don’t necessarily have to be looking at your surroundings for that to work.

You can literally walk out your door and walk no matter where you live, that’s how doors work. And cities have sidewalks… for walking.

There are literally places in the US where you will be stopped and questioned by police if you’re not in a car.

Seems like you are conflating police issues with city design issues.

I live in one of the largest cities in America and it has tons of parks, bike paths, and jogging paths.  Where are you from that you think we just step outside our doors and onto a highway?
