Exercise during COVID-19 pandemic

I m on my daily walk and my mind is wandering. I m remembering Gabriel Garcia Marquez s novel “Love in the Time of Cholera” in which “cholera” suggests both the actual plague that is ravaging the novel s countryside setting as well as the violence of the civil war. The main character also suffers from a kind of love sickness as he longs for his Fermina. I m loving my walk and my thoughts; so what in the world does this have to do with exercise? In a lot of ways we can draw parallels.
“These are extraordinary, unprecedented times.” We hear this everyday – on the news, TV, radio, from our smart speaker.
