The great outdoors is off limits for many us during the pandemic, so how are you getting your fix of activity?
It takes some ingenuity to keep fit and healthy while gyms are closed, sporting events are cancelled and there are limits on how long we can spend outdoors. Yet some people have dealt with the restrictions with impressive creativity.
The freestyle skier Andri Ragettli normally spends his time flying over slopes in Switzerland, but this week he has turned his flat into an assault course to work on his technique and balance. Ben Zwiehoff, a cross-country mountain bike racer, has also turned his accommodation into a training centre. Elisha Nochomovitz, a restaurant worker who has to stay at home due to the lockdown in
France, popped outside to his balcony to complete a marathon. Nochomovitz was meant to be competing at the
Barcelona marathon this month, but had to settle for 3,000 laps of his seven-metre balcony instead.
